Lesley,
we finally got the internet back this morning, so trying to catch up.
In the past the height was limited with the Metal Halides i had. From all I have read now, the LED lights these days, will allow for penetration for a 90 cm deep tank, and some research and wise placement of corals at appropriate depths.
After seeing your lighting plan, with a mix of T5 and LED, I am not sure which direction to go.
Are the T5 you will use, cost effective on power usage, and penetration of light to depth ? how much control do you get with them, as opposed to LED ?
