My tank is 56 gallons
Dimensions: Tank: 18"L x 30"W x 24"H

I have, current USA orbit marine saltwater reef LED lighting system
which is 96 watts.

and AquaticLife T5 HO fixture 4 bulbs 24 x 4 96 watts.

I change the T5 HO bulbs to,


Giesemann Power chrome aquablue + 15000k

Giesemann power chrome actinic + 22000k

Fluval power Glo 18000k

and one regular actinic bulb 420/460nm

Do you think that this is enough and good for my soft corals and few hard sps corals that I have like monti cap, birds nest and purple digitata?

Please let me know what you guys think and let me know if I should change anything!
 
as long as you have the SPS up higher near the light. the 4 bulb T5 fixture is fine for what you have...the LEDs are just a bonus at that point...
 
need more advice please! :)
