I'm currently running a Kessil A160 over my 20g IM Fusion nano which is LPS biased. The Kessil is doing a great job at keeping everything alive and colored up but I'm not noticing significant growth. I know patience is a virtue but I think Kessil lights can either be hit or miss. Some corals will thrive under them where others only survive.
With that being said, I'm hoping to convert my lighting to a T5/LED combo. I would like to purchase a Reef Brite 24" tech blue strip and add dual HO T5's for supplementation. My vision is to have a slim/low profile setup but I'm finding that dual bulb T5 HO fixtures are quite limited. I would love to have a dual ATI fixture with Reef Brite LEDs, although I know that their smallest fixture is a quad bulb unit.
My questions are:
1) Are their any great dual T5 HO fixtures comparable to ATI on the market?
2) Is a quad bulb ATI fixture going to be extreme over a 20g nano?
3) What will be needed to dim the intensity of the Reef Brites from my Apex unit?
I'm hoping to only run the T5's for 2-4 hours per day but I'm quite unsure as to what I will need to accomplish this. Any help will be much appreciated
