    I currently have 260 watt orbit pc lighting system...I have mostly soft corals and everything is growing pretty well and doing fine...I have a 90 gallon and want to increase the lighting for maximum growth, but dont want to get a new lighting system as the current one is doing fine...so I want to add lighting and was thinking of hanging two fluorescent bulbs with about 75 to 100 watt equivalent output and 6500 K.. similar to the lighting over my fuge.. Do you think this will make a difference??

    So 150-200 watts added? That should help a bit.
