72 bowfront lights

[robo-snickers]

hello all, I have need for some advice. I am currently running a planted tank in a 72 bowfront, C02, liquid fertz, root tabs, and 2 T5HO. half the plants seem to be doing really well whiles others are not. I am thinking its the lights. the fixture i have is from odysea and is a cheap fixture. would it be smart to bump up to 4 bulbs? or is that overkill?

It really depends on the tank height and what kind of plants you have.

Imo lights are the most important part of a planted tank, then co2 and close 3rd ferts. That's being said I like to push it on what I can get away with lower end products. I was once considering the same fixture. And if the four bulb works I would use it. How tall is your tank?
