pc lights under h. magnifica?

[bullterrier2]

hi everyone im setting up a 125 gallon and i wanted to go all t5 ho but i saw comments saying that h. magnificas need lots of light so i was wondering if i could put the 6 39wt t5 ho lights on one side and have 2 or 3 96wt PC lights on the end that the magnifica is going to be placed.
but if it is possible to keep the anemone under t5 ho at the top of the aquarium let me know please cause im confuse i really want the whole tank under t5 ho. I think i saw someone with a magnifica under t5 once and i looked healthy.

thanks

I think you can go with T5s. A lot of folks say MH, but I'd say bare minimum would be T5.

They seem to prefer a point source rather than diffuse light. They some times wander around trying to find the brightest area without a point source.
