Lighting range

[-shawn-]

I am assembling and retrofit lighting setup for a five gallon nano-reef tank. My lighting setup is compossed of three 13 watt lights. One of which will be a blue actinic, the other two are the ones I am unsure of.
I was planning on using two 6400K lights for the higher Kalvin rating, but I didn't know if I were to use one 5000K and one 6400K if a would be able to get a better spectrum. Any suggestions.

There has been some debate but mostly I have read that natrual sunlight is around 5000 to 5500 K. Anything lower then that and the spetrum will not be correct.
If it were me I would go with the 2 6400 K bulbs because the look will be better.
BTW good luck with the 5 gallon.

I was planning on going with the two 6400K but I wasn't positive it was best so I figured I'd try to find out.
Thanks for the good luck wish. I'll need it. A lot of nano is still experimentation and thats what I'll be doing for sure.
