Oh, and just to Spam my own thread a bit testing by the LED leaders at nano-reef.com shows that the drop off in PAR vs. depth is less with LEDs vs. MH. That makes sense as with the optics virtually all the output of the LEDS is focussed down into the tank. T5s and MH, even with good reflectors, probably have less cohesive light with more scatter from the reflectors as they emit in all directions and then rely on the reflectors to focus the light down if that makes sense.
