T5

[Barrett]

I currently have a ocean revive arctic t247b mounted 7.5 inches off the water on my 24x24x20 cube and was wanting to add 2 t5 supplement. I have never used t5's before and was wondering the best bulbs to use for coral color and growth. I will be adding two 24" single bulb fixtures on either side of the led.

Color is atinic and growth is a daylight bulb.
You want to go between but doesn't have the results as you go with a single bulb mentioned above you looking at a super purple or aquablue azure, both are giesemann bulbs

Could I put a atinic on one side of the led fixture and a daylight on the other?

yes you can.
I would do the daylight in the back of the tank and have that one only running for about 4 hrs on peak time that's all it take for good coral growth

I added the sunblaster t5 HO fixture to my tank with my kessils, with a blue+ bulb. Fixing to add another one soon!

I ordered two 24" sunblaster fixtures. Good to hear from someone who has them that they are good.
