T5 hybrid

36x20x21

is it possible to have a thriving sps dominant tank with 4 t5 bulbs supplemented with two Kessil 360’s? Who has better spread? Hydra/prime, Kessil 360, radion xr15’s? Who has more pop? I lean towards a blue lighting but a fair amount of white too - I don’t like too heavy of blue color’s from my lights - thanks for everyone’s help!

I use t5/kessil a360we hybrid setup. Mainly sps corals seem to grow much faster than blackbox lights. I have 4 t5 bulbs.1 kessil for every 2 ft. not sure about the other lights I only use the kessils.

I have the T5 with 3x A360x's right now, I had the xr15's but I love the shimmer and contrast/colors of the kessils so much more. I know it probably just my eyes but when I switched to the kessils it felt like everything went to OLED 8k mode instead of 1080p lol. Even my GF said everything just got so bright and vivid.

really?! That’s really selling me and from what BRS said about the par at 6” 12” and 18” seems like more than enough for a sps dominant tank. Any pics? Thanks!
