I will try to get the research the company i work for conducted when designing underwater lighting for fish farms, but i dont think i can post it to the public, its been copyrighted.
HUH?! Welcome back to arithmetic in the real world. The fixture discussed in that thread is a 6 x 39W Tek light - i.e. 234W. Not a very good comparison indeed . . .

Let me know when you've actually read the thread posted above and discovered that the tank is a standard 30g at 36 x 12 x 16.
