T5 HO lighting for reef
Just looking for a suggestion on lighting for my "softy" reef 40 gallon. I currently run 2 marineglo "actinic" and 2 powerglo "18k" bulbs but I have a lifeglo "6.5K". I been reading lots on the subject and can't decide on what to do so I'm looking for input/benefits for both setups. What I've concluded was if you want more pop/blue use the setup I have now but If I want my corals to grow swap one of the bulbs out for the lifeglo. Anyone have any experience with this subject. To be completely honest I can't really tell any major difference if I remove one powerglo but my tank is brighter (not color wise) with a lifeglo. If you know pros/cons for either please let me know your experience.
Cheers
