LEDs back to T5HO

[DayTTU17]

Hey fellas,

I am debating on whether or not to go back to T5 on my 10 gallon nano. Currently have a bunch of sps/few zoas/acans/duncans etc. Would this fixture (24") be too much light for my tank?

Responses are appreciated...would upgrade the bulbs to ATI Coral Plus..

how deep is your nano? Why do you want to make the switch?

I switched from T5 to LED and everything is doing very well. I have cut a couple of frags recently and put them in my frag tank with dual t5s (7.5 gallon). The colors seem to be more vibrant under them.

Thats the reason I am debating...

Let me know if anyone has any experience with this light or think this would be good for my tank

I have that light on my 90gal. I love it. Would definitely upgrade the bulbs though.

the only thing i worry about is having too much light since i am only running a standard 10gallon. Do you have yours hooked up to a controller and if so, can you have the whites/blues/leds come on at different times?

Thanks Hook'em2006

That unit has three separate plugs for each. So, yes ... you can have all 3 on timers to come on at a specific time

Does anyone think this light would be too much for my standard 10 gallon?

Thanks in advance

No ... not at all.
