Yeah i know, it is way to bright. I always have to shade my new corals for two weeks and slowly bring them into the open light. People who say T5s are not bright enough have no clue what they are talking about. I think the parabolic reflectors are over kill. As you see i have all kinds of corals in my tank.
I run my lights for 10 hrs. 2 blue+ from 2pm-4pm and 10pm-12am. 2 aquablue and 1 ge 6500k and 1 blue+ from 4pm-10pm.
Running all 6 bulbs at the same time is way to much. I will put up a pic of what happened to my Mycedium and all my corals when first got my Tek T5
