Hello Reefer,
I have a 36"x24"12" frag tank and I need some help on the sizing the T5 lighting. This frag tank will be dominated by SPS. What do you guy think of putting a 36" 8 bulb powermodule on this frag tank? or would a 24" ATI powermodule be better?
 
You can get away with the 24" one as then what you can do is put the lower light SPS on the edges, or if you want to experiment with color.

If money is no objective of course get the 36!
 
If it was my tank, I would do 6 bulb 36" sunpower. Save the money on bulb changes, but light that tank end to end. 8 bulb might be overkill on a 12" deep tank.

Run 5 blue + and 1 purple +
