I have a 50 gal cube with t5 bulbs 2 are 24w actinic and 2 are 24w 10000k daylight. Is this enough for corals?
 
Soft corals, some LPS some zoas...with good reflectors and good bulbs I must point out...

May want to see if a 4 bulb fixture will fit over the tank if you are wanting other things..
 
As trigger stated, but unless you must have actinic, I'll suggest doing 2x ati blue plus, 1x daylight, and a purple.


Also, you posted in the wrong section, this is "LEDs" only.
