Considering supplementing with Coralife Aqualight T5

[kwirky]

these are garbage. I have the 48" dual bulb T5 normal output fixture (the one you gave the link to), and it gives less light than a normally driven T8 bulb. Get HO driven lights with individual reflectors if you're thinking of T5.

guess if it sound to good to be true..., looking into HO.

If this is true there is something wrong with your fixture.

for $150 I would go for these... only 50 bux more plus the cost of bulbs.

I just got 2 sets of these to compliment the colors under 2 x 400W 10K de halides

I like them... easy to wire

For the TEKs, are the reflectors separate for each bulb (could I run the bulbs parallel to each other 12" apart)?

Yes the reflector actually attaches to the bulb
