 How is this lighting system? So i've been trying to determine the best lighting system for my 90 gallon reef/fish tank. Below is the one i have been looking at. I'm looking into getting the 48" 250watt version. Outer Orbit HQI/T5 HO Fixtures, Lighting | Pet Solutions  |

| Re: How is this lighting system? In a mixed reef this should be fine. It is a little low and if you could step it up i would. |

| Re: How is this lighting system? I used this light on my 75 gal and just got by. I would get something with more light.

| Re: How is this lighting system? Not sure what these guys are talking about. That is plenty of light. The mix of Halides and T-5 Ho is a lot of spectrum and intensity. I think it is good.
