Yup it will be good to switch on all 8 tube for 4-6hrs, the rest of the time, 2 tubes will be enough. depend on your scape if the whole rock scape is under the 8 tube then should be ok, if not just

Been thinking of switching to AI Hydra 52 but the initial cost of the LED deters me from doing so. Hence, time to change the T5 Tubes and combination.

Am now using these combination on my 6 x ATI sunpower dimmable T5. Actinic - blue plus - coral plus - blue plus - Actinic - blue plus. While change the T5 light tubes, discovered that one of the cooling fan was not working. Bought a replacement fan at Sim Lim Towers (original fan for ATI is made is china and DC 12V & 0.12A) and at a higher amp of 0.18A.

Also, supplement with DE 2 x T5 with 2 x blue plus set at the frontage of the tank. Pics of the Sump and dsb (Reverse light cycle, so Sump is dark now). Not running Rowas phos anymore and the FR is just left there without any media running.

Is the same tank, started out as mixed reef, more sps then to fishes only. 

Yap, added some new fishes recently and the issue started.  Basically, lost the entire collection, queen, asfur, marculous, blue face, majestic, sohal, yellow tang etc etc.
