T5 lighting setup

[shogun1964]

I am getting a 4 bulb T5 light outfit this week and would like to know which lights I should put in there. Eventually after my tank matures a little I want to make it a reef tank, presently it is a FOWLR

Ati or geisman bulbs. Bulb combo depends. You could do 2 coral plus and two blue plus. Or two blue plus, actinic, and coral plus. Or all blue plus. Or one of each.. blue, actinic, coral, purple.

I would go with 2 blue plus and 2 coral plus.

If your going with a fowler. Don't waste the money on good tubes.

Look at tubes for a fowler.

Or. As soon as you get tubes. Buy coral.

I am currently running 3 blue plus bulbs and one purple plus it's a nice combo it's a little on the blue side. I had 2 blue plus and 2 coral plus which is good to not as blue as the 3 blue plus and one purple plus
