I need help with my lighting.
I have 95 gal reef tank with 90lb live rock 13 fish and like 5 big coral + anenami +carpet
Right now I m using 36” compact twine tube Aquarium reflector 110w florescent
And 24” 55 watt blue florescent.

Than’x

It really depends on what type of life you want keep in your tank. If you just want fish i think that amount of light will do (but it's still not great). If you want to do more coral than i would consider adding some more lights. It seems like you have two bulbs ( the 36 and 55 watt PC) that are short and then you have a long 110watt VHO lamp. I would say that you need to use a light that will give you a much better spread of light across your tank. I am assuming that 95 gallon tank is fairly wide and i don't think those PC's are going to cut it. If were you i would go with a solid comination of Metal halide and PC or VHO. I think this will give you the best results and allow you to keep a larger variety of livestock.
