That is what I am running and I really like the color. I was running 2 150 10k Phoenix MH's on my 65 which was not enough for my 65. My softies and LPS took off under this new T5 lighting setup.

Phoenix is 14k...
Old halide bulbs maybe?
For softies, 2 150w Phoenix halides should be adequate if a 4 bulb T5 is.

Sorry that was 14k on the MH....

You would think that it would have been enough but I can tell you what I am seeing and in a similar photo period I am getting more growth out of the T5 fixture with the ATI bulbs. I need to see if I can dig up some photo's of the old setup.

I just scored a 6x24 sunpower over the weekend. Can't wait to try it out.

Makes sense ATI is at the top! I use a 6x54w sunpower on my sps reef with excellent results. For bulbs I use 4 blue+, a purple+, and a coral+.
