Added T5 to LED - New Pics

[jmaiello04]

I added 2 T5 bulbs to brighten up my tank, an ATI Blue Plus and ATI Purple Plus.

Previous lighting was 2x Maxspect Razor in the 16000K.

I am getting back into SPS, and thought this would help things grow better.

Has any else added T5 as a supplement to their LED only lighting?

Pics to follow.

we added 4 T5's to our Radion system awhile ago blue plus 10k 6500k and actinic blue (The dark one)

I have a Fluval M48 LED, a single strip blue LED, and two T5 HO lights. When I added the T5's I got great growth and extension! I think it's a great combination!

The LED's have been able to maintain and grow SPS, but at a much slower rate than I achieved with T5s. I am hoping to see an improvement with the two new bulbs.
