Question about a new nano

[TimothyJ]

I am going to set up a 20 gallon high nano at work soon and was curious opinions on the following light fixture. I have an AquaSun T5 HO unit that houses two lights at 24W each. Will this be enough to grow soft corals and SPS in the tank? If so, will it reach the sand bed? Thanks for any insight or experience with these items.

I think that you are going to need something more powerful. A 4 bulb t5 would be the absolute minimum and MH or LEDs with optics would be better.

Yep, not enough light.
