T5 and Low Light Coral

[Shep]

So as I think more about making the switch over to T5 from LED, I am wondering how low light corals do? I am thinking of getting a 6-8 bulb fixture and don't want to fry my LPS because they are my favorites. Any suggestions?

I think just acclimate the light add little more time each week or day see this is what confuses me if u go and buy a coral from the lfs and change the loghting with them it's like adding them to a new tank just like buying a new piece my opinion who knows if right and I put my led stuff right in to my halide tank just fine knock on wood

Going to t5 shouldn't be a problem, I've heard going to leds takes some acclimation where you want to gradually increase the light.
