Default lighting,

I have the same tank dimensions. I am using the nova extreme 6 bulbs, with KZ lights. Its been about a year and a half now. Its my first tank, so i cant offer any comparison. I have a toadstool and colt coral, also a bubble lps coral, a pulsing zenia, spaghetti leather and a clove polyp. All my corals doubled or trippled in size, within one year. I dont know if its solely due to the lighting. It could also be due to water quality althou when i test for phosphates, my reading is zero. I am happy with the fixture. To me, my corals are growing too fast. I would rather they grow less, so i can enjoy them more at their smaller size. My toadstool was 6 inches across when i purchased it, now its 14" The colt also was about 6-7 inches tall when i purchased it. now its 16" tall.
