Yes, if I went with T5s I would go with individual reflectors. The Sunlight Supply Tek T5 6-bulb, or this other brand that J&L Aquatics has just started carrying that I can't remember the name of...they come in odd numbered bulbs. I do like the variance of the bulbs, and I have seen some AMAZINGLY colored SPS under intense T5 lighting.

I am running Giesemann T5 bulbs right now, and have found that they have yellowed A LOT. They are now just 5 months old. I'm not happy with the Giesemanns. Currently, my fixture is just a Hagen brand GLO T5 fixture, but it does the trick.
