the hype in the reef comunity is based on the high output version of the T5 bulb. a 2 foot bulb is about 40 watts output and the intensity is much higher than the standard t5 . will they work on a small tank, probably, let us know. I see that some people are using NO tubes on reef tanks with some success. I was simply stationg that I see a lot of LFS claiming to have "The" T5 light the industry is going crazy over, and then they sell the no versions of them. and I am not saying that they even know they are doing this or maybe they do.
