![]() I'd definetly consider T5's. They are a great 'low-wattage' option for all your lighting, or just supplemental. I have 2 x 48" T5's.. 10K, and those two alone over my tank are INSANE for light... You want to make sure they are HO(High output) though, and that they are in single bulb reflectors. Chris

![]() Thanks for the tip, Funky. I'll look into it and keep an eye out for high output.

![]() I'm curious as to why you want so much light over a FOWLR tank? Do you plan to convert it to a reef later?
