Lighting question

[stinkydavis]

Hello everyone. I am looking for opinions on helping with rock shadowing and helping the backs of my across. I have a 96” tank and am debating buying 2 used 48” 2 bulb t5s to hang toward the back of the tank. I can get plenty of par just using the leds but the pucks don’t have enough spread to cover the 30” deep tank. Do we think this would help or just a waste of money?

If money isn't an issue, try the hybrid method. T5s going across the center and AI blades on the sides.

Money is and issue. hoping that this plan would hold me over. Have a big purchase coming up plus to kids in daycare haha.
