My tank is a 35 gallon rectangle tank and I plan on 6 x T.5 H.O's. 2 x geismen aquablues and 4 x attinic plus. Is this satisfactory to supply the right spectrum and photosyntehsis for Zoas, Paly's, and all types of Shrooms?

Are the aquablues equivalent to ATI coral plus? Seems like overkill on the actinic. Typically, I would do 3 blue plus (blue) 2 special blue (white) and one purple or actinic. I was more worried about my viewing pleasure than coral growth.

Might be a bit overkill on the actinic, however the zoos will look amazing! Also seems like a bit much light on a 35G tank! I guess depending on how high you are planning to put the light fixture!

yeah your right, I liked how my last 35G was with 4 t5 so I'm deciding on going with 4 t.5 because 6 will not fit. I'm going to check a hydrophonics store for a fixture since it doesn't matter to me on how the fixture looks. I once went to a guy's house in michigan and he said he run only 2 attinics 80% of the time and all 4 which included 2 x 10 000k for 20% of the time.

Going to need something under 12"W, So will probably buy 4 x the single strip from the hydrophonics store again.
Thanks for looking out.
