That is plenty of light for a BTA.

I am running 4 39 Watt T5's (36" long tubes) on a go long and my bta is doing well. After introduction, they might move around a bit before finding a spot to its liking.......Jim Z.

Don't want to steal thread, but, I have a question about could there be too much light for BTA? I have 8x54W T5 (1 6500K, 2 10000K, 3 420nm, 1 460nm).

My GBTA is under 4x39w T5's and it stays at the bottom on the sandbed, and still shows great health and colour.

I have dual 150w DE MH 10k and 192w actinic and my RBTA reaches for light. The bulbs are only a couple months old.

...you do have enough light

I am running 2 x 39 Watt T5's (AquaBlue and Blue+) and only feed my BTA once a week, and it is getting BIG!
