I have corals under my T5s and they are all doing well. My best successes are xenias (4 different types and all are spreading) I also have a medusa coral, some furyr mushrooms (growing madly) one lot of zoas and a sponge. My anemone is also doing very well and opens and closes and feeds as it should.

Do the T5s have individual reflectors? If so I think you can keep just about anything under T5s.
