I was a big advocate for LED lights when they came out, what was there not to like. Efficient, sleek and powerful par readings throughout all depths, and shimmer. However I am finding out that you either need to stack LED units to get proper coverage and to get good light to inaccessible areas (spot lighting). With the multi reflectors on the t-5s you won't have that issue. T-5s put out a nicer spectrum in my opinion however you will need to replace bulbs and lack of shimmer. I am on the ropes between the two. Do I find a second LED unit or complete switch to T-5.
Bulk reef supply has a good sale off their ati sunpower fixtures, a great fixture however it isn't dimmable,15 percent off! so now is the time to buy.
