T5 Hybrid

[Soldja12]

So I just installed my new Aquatic life t5 hybrid and went 2 ft off the waterline. I went this hight because its a low boy 80 gallon tank. Thoughts?

Forgot to mention. I have 2 radion G4 pros that run AB+ 50% intensity

Looks good

I think mine is 14 inches above a 650 penn with 4 of the old AI 26’s

I plan to run radions 10 hours, and t5s for 3 hours at peak. I'm worried that at that height my acros won't get enough light

 

[Greenreef75]

I run 4 x b+ for 6 hrs and the leds ramp up then down over 12 hrs

Looks good so far keep us posted as I am considering the same package for my build...still a couple of months down the road though.

PS thank you for your service.

I would drop it 24'' is pretty high

I dropped it to 18 inches. I will run the t5s for 3-4 hours from 12 to 3 at peak. I'm going to keep 50% intensity for thr time being and observe the acros to see what the need. I plan to keep the 18 inches and each week go up on intensity by 1%
