Led+t5 diy light

[dorky]

hello I've brought the 25g lagoon tank I love the dimensions of it. Anyway I was force to downsize the tank and to keep the cost down since I'm having a child on the way and just move into a new house. So with that being said I'm reusing that parts that I already have plus new t5 kit that I want to put together. Here an idea what my build look like. I have led bars that I used in the past it consist of RB, Blue and cool white. What will be in the tank primarily LPS just maybe sps. So what you think?

You can keep SPS or LPS with that set up. I added t-5's to my led's to stop the shading I was getting on colonies.
