hey everyone
so i just bought a 4x24 (92W) t5 fixture. i plan on using this to replace a 165W pc light over a shallow tank.
now, i have a quick question... if the pc light with a total of 165W gets replaced and i put in a 96w 4x24 bulb t-5 fixture, do you think the corals would benefit any more?
i know t-5's put out more par over pc's but with less watts i wonder if they compare?
any thought on this?
