Help with adding T5 to an LED set-up

[Aere]

Right now I have a 125 gallon that has no canopy.

It is 6 foot long.

I have three reefbreeder LEDs above the tank, hanging from the wall off L brackets.

What would be the easiest way, and what type of lights would you recommend for stricly adding color to the tank for corals

old picture, tank has been re scaped, and has lots more corals, purple algae, blue backer...well see my build thread.

What can I do to add more color, best bulks, best fixture. Don't want to spend a whole bunch.

I was thinking a canopy, but dont know if the leds, and t5s would fit in a 6 long.

You can build a floating canopy and hang everything inside. Have 2 t-5 bulbs running inside with the 3 reef breeders inside as well.

do you have a pic you could post so I could get a better idea?

Bump for any more ideas

Only way would be to build a canopy. Run 2-80w retrofit t5s. U can do what Justin said and build a floating canopy, or one that sits on top of ur tank.

Since you already have LEDs why not get custom LEDs with different color spectrums?

You can also build a "rail system" to suspend the LEDs and attach the T5's, but may not look as clean. I'm thinking like aluminum square tubing....sort of like the AI Sol's.
