Need advice on lighting

[Amps Reef Life]

I have a Elos 36 gallon tank. Currently running with a AI prime HD.

Switching over to an all SPS tank due to overflow from my main tank.

Questions is.... 24inch T5 fixture 4 or 6 bulb?

22.5 x 20 x 19

Im sure just ai prime would grow sps. Just use carbon or ozone to keep the water clear and par wont be an issue. Most coral growth maxes out at around 250 par anyways and with the ai you shouldnt have a problem getting that number.

If youd like supplemental t5 would be decent. One front and back.

For some reason there seems to be a trend with t5s causing lots of corraline growth, with led not so much.

I may just go with that for now and see how things go. I wanted to add two T5's to supplement and this is how I run my main tank but I don't have a way to mount the T5's.
That's why I was just thinking just getting a T5 fixture knowing I can just hang it from the ceiling.

I got it worked out. I found a way to hang a few retro fit T5's with the Prime HD. Won't look pretty but it will grow some corals.
