Double T5's ?

[Jakes]

Hey guys ,

So Im currently running twin T5's with arcadia reflectors. I have one Fluval Life Spectrum and one Power Spectrum. My plants are doing well just i think my 'baby tears' could do with a little more light.

The tank is 45cm deep with the lowest plants sitting around 42 from the lights.

Are 4 T5s overkill?? I currently run CO2 injection @2ish bubbles per second with a photo period of 7hrs.

Thanks

I think yes, 4 T5s would be an overkill! Can you lower the current lights a bit?

Nope they are about 3cm from the surface of the water currently, the tanks has a class cover over it so they are "as low as they can go"
