Hey Guys,
Question for you ... If i set up my tank lighting with MH's on the front half of the tank, and t5 actinic on the back half, will it affect coral growth? For example, the typical setup from front to back of the tank is t5 actinic, t5 acinic, mh bulb, t5 actinin, t5 actinic ... and Im thinking of setting up the lights to be mh bulb, t5 actinin, t5 actinic, t5 actinic, t5 actinic ... make sense?
