hat still doesn't mean there wasn't enough light with the T5's

yes it could, as why would wilsons corals do better with metal halides vs t5s,

Metal halides dont make coral come out more.

he only had 54w. pretty low lighting levels. 54w is the same as 1 x4ft t5 bulb, that is not enough lighting. no wonder the coral opened more with metal halides.

forgive me if this is a stupid question but when you increased the light that much did you need to acclimatise the corals to it?

Not a stupid question. hobbyist always make this mistake.

yes, you should raise the lights and lower them over a week or so. or you can burn the corals.
