Need to be a little more specific, I am guessing T5's. What make, Kelvin rating & age of bulbs.

One thing about Kevins tanks is he has probably way more flow, much bigger systems, there is no sand bed to hold high levels of nutrients & tanks are mostly coral or fish only except for a few.

Maybe you might need to change out a couple bulbs to higher k ratings, look at the bulb and see what make they are.
