i would either go for 6-8 bulb fixture with the new sunblaster nanotech reflectors

aluminum is good to go for as the sunblasters ballasts gets hot, its a good way to dissipate the heat from the base for higher efficiency on the ballast as well as longer lifespan. The important part is the individual reflectors, they'll make for overall more efficient fixture. Adding a fan to cool ONLY the cold end of the bulbs (the end with the text/logo) is an important part in using T5s for optimum output and lifespan.
