2 bulb fixture
Would a 2 bulb 48" t5ho fixture be enough lighting for lps and softies/zoas/Palys on a 16" deep tank? The tank is 48x12x16. This is more of a cheapo setup and he doesn't want to spend a ton of money on the lighting. Though ati bulbs will be used. What you guys think?

I would think yes, but you could ask Myka. She recommended a 2 bulb fixture for my 24 x 12 x 16 LPS tank.

I used a 2 tube Hagen Glo 48" fixture when starting up my 77 gallon years ago. Kept a BTA & some softies alive, but not sure it would have kept the nem happy long term. One white & one actinic tube.
