So I just bought a 36' by 35' 20' 112-gallon lagoon and cant wait to get it started but I am worried about lighting. I currently have 4 ai primes and I'm worried that they don't have enough cover and spread to light the tank enough to grow some sps and lps? any thoughts, im all ears.

Hybrid fixtures and add your LEDs to them

Thanks for replying so fast. But the thing is I would have to lose one of the ai primes to get the t5 fixture, and would a t5 fixture be able to have 36 inches of spread?

Why not get 2 of the 24” long T5 fixtures, mount them perpendicular and have 2 LeDs in each?

I run 2 48” T5’s on mine
