Lighting Questions

[Ipit]

Hi guys. My 2ft x 2ft x 1.5ft (height) HC & X mass moss is going on well and i have recently bought a a used 2 x 2 x1ft (height) so my question here is that for my first tank i noticed with a 4 tube t5ho 24 watts each tube does not cover the full width of the tank so i ended up buying another 4 tube t5ho tube so that makes it 8 tubes on one tank.

So i was wondering for the 2nd tank that i am setting up is there any suggestion or advice on lighting as i do not wish to buy 2 x 4 tubes lighting like i did for my 1st tank.

This is my first tank with 2 sets of 4 tubes t5ho

2 units of 2 tube t5, you mention that the tank height is 1 feet have you try bring the 4x light set higher by hanging it ?

Height is also against me i have a height clearance of about 10" or so as the stand will be under my 5ft arowowana tank. Getting 2 units of 4 tubes t5 burnt a huge hole in my pocket hahaha so for this 2nd tank im going for less demanding plants glosso as carpet and mosses
