sphelps: During the initial planning of this tank the nova 4x39 T5 was what i was going to go with and shipped to my door would have been under $300 but now the prices have gone up and the cheapest i have found it is $315.61 not including taxes and shipping. So now because of this i am looking for new lighting options and other ways to reduce my costs for my salty tank. Its very difficult and because of such ive been entertaining the idea of going fw again which doesnt make me happy.

I found a thread on another forum that used 2x96 PC and they were able to keep softies and some lps. I remember when the options were PC's or MH and slowly t5's came into the picture and now LED's are making there way in. Its kinda funny.

I agree lorenzo that 2x39 T5 will be quite low and i probably wont be happy with it. I wish i found a thread where i could see examples of tanks with low lighting and see what they have in them... maybe i should just go fowlr?? I dunno anymore.
