So you would buy the Phoenix over the Hamilton's next time...good thing to know because your tank looks great now, which means you think it would look the same or better with the Phoenix's, right?

The T5's are definitely adding to the color then. I've got a coralife unit with the 96W actinics so I can't really add T5's unless we make something ourselves to hang next to the Coralife. I can change out the bulbs to Phoenix bulbs though...which I'm thinking would definitely help with the color. My 24 gallon looks nice with the Phoenix and the frags i put in there have much more color than when they are in the main tank under the coralife MH and actinics.
