Title says it all... Reason I ask is I was planning on selling the light fixture I was running on my tank when I had it set-up as reef but haven't gotten any serious interest in it. It's 3x250 MH & 8 39 watt T5s.. Since they all are on separate switches I'm thinking I may just get new bulbs for the T5 portion of it & not use the MH. I currently have some high end really actinic bulbs for the T5 part which was awesome for corals but not the desired look for fresh. So for those that are running T5s what bulb/ type gives of the best look for the tank? Post pics of your tanks with the bulbs on if its not a hassle so I can see what it looks like. I may toss in a few low demand live plants at some point.

Tank is a standard 180.

Thanks
