I have a 40 gallon breeder, and doing a 6 bulb
IMO I would rather have a light with more output than not enough especially with sunlight supply u can just get their hanging kit, so u can adjust the height

T5's are aproximatly a 50% increase over PCs give or take for different designes. so you can keep more depending on placment and other requirments. Lighting is just one part of coral growth and you can grow SPS under a NO bulb, but it will be brown, grow slowly and have to be right under the water surface.
