Sps dominant ... t5 longer or LED?

[jmichaelh7]

Trying to create my schedule with LED and T5.

Would you shouldn’t t5 or LED and how long

Kind of depends on your lights. What are you running? i have a standard 6 ft, 150 gallon. i run 3 ration xr15s using AB+ with 20% white, ramping up starting at 10 and off at 10. Two hour ramp up and down on each end. i have a row of t5s on the front and back that come on at 1 and go off at 8. Grow plenty of sps, acros, stylos, birdsnest, montis, etc.

4 32hd and 2 blues 2 actinics.

I haven’t got the cable to dim my t5 yet so they are just on at 12-6pm.

I have 100 on blues and purples with whites maxing out at 28 schedule is 8am-8pm

Kind of hard to tell, but Looks like you got some encrusting growth in the middle red piece, so what you are doing seems to be working.

When I ran T5s, and all my SPS buddies that currently run T5s only use nothing but on/off with our lights. Corals don't care.
