Is this going to be enough lighting?

6- 54watt T-5 Bulbs over a 120???

I couldn't get the 8 because it wouldn't fit in my canopy on my 72 but I'm not sure if this will be enough for the 120

Roy- do you have the link that shows all bulbs' pars at different depths?

What are you going to try and keep? Which fixture is it?

 

[Reggae Fish]

Finnex and bulbs will be replaced with URI bulbs...
Will be keeping LPS/SPS/Zoas/Clam

What about adding individual reflectors?

 

[sirreal63]

Adding them isn't easy and depending on the fixture you won't be able to add individal reflectors for each bulb. SPS won't thrive but the rest should be ok. Honestly 4 bulbs with sls reflectors would be more than enough light and you could keep sps at the top.

By the time you did all of that you could buy a tek fixture

Here is the link with the T5 bulb par ratings.

I'd stay away from the URI/UVL bulbs. Their best bulb is the AquaSun and it is very pink! I had one AquaSun in my 6x54w Tek light and it turned the tank pink like Pepto. Stick with ATI and Giesemann.

Let us know how you like those URI T5s? Beaker did you try one or two AquaSun bulbs? maybe a bad bulb?
