Lighting question...again

[Kelz88]

Hello Everyone,
I just wanted to ask if my two Kessil A360w -E's would be enough lighting for my 55 Gallon tank. The tank is 48" long, 13" Wide, and 20" High. My husband thinks it will not be enough light and want to keep two t5s over it as well. I on the other hand would prefer to ditch the t5s all together.

What do you guys (and gals) think?

2 would do fine. I have a friend with a pair on his 90 which is 48x48x18 and he has no issues.

If you have questions, call Kessil tomorrow and speak with Jess, he can answer all your questions. And tell him Wade told you to call him.
