Need Help Deciding

[tinmanny]

My wife just informed that I am getting lights for my 90g reef if I decide which ones i want.

First let me explain I would like to keep mushrooms and I love SPS corals plus all in between so I need help choosing.

I am liking the t5 8 bulb setup right now but I know a lot of people use 2 250w halide with t5 anctics

what does everyone think I would like your input on the matter

So tell me what you think or what you are using and why

I appreciate your input on this matter
Thanks

I think a metal halides & t5's make the best combination. I have a 90g also and plan to upgrade to 2 x 250w 15k MH and 4 T5's (two actinic, two daylight)

IMO I would rather use the 2 250W MH w/ t5 actinc light. this is a really personal decision because it depends on the research you have done of each light and how they adjust to ur tank needs and budget$$$$

Go to some of the LFS's and/or other hobbyists homes to see what different setups look like. You can do all the research in the world but until you see it it won't mean much
