Tec 5 t5's 6x54 & 8x54

[luke33]

So how large of a tank will these lights work for with a full blown reef. Clams, sps, lps, anemone's, everything. I'm guessing the 8x54 would suffice a 125g but thats about as large as you could go. What do you think?

I have a 4 light setup on a 90 with the dimensions of 48x18widex25tall my crocea is doing great now. I had a few issues previously but that was a water issue.

Really, no one has these, thought they were one of the best t5 fixtures cuz of the seperate reflectors.....huh.

Thanks chef. So i'm guessing if you had the 8x54 on a 120g it would be enough for all corals. But probably still better with a couple 250mh's.

go to the sps forum and you well see some more comparison.
i only run 4X54 tek over my 90 mixed reef every thing looks good just not fast growth good coloring tho. I think tho when i step up to a 120 i will do a 6x54. I would say 8x54 over 120 you could have anything you wanted.
