light for tall skinny tank

You will be very limited by those lights. I would recommend patience and waiting for someone on the forum here to sell something more substantial. Buying used on here is far cheaper than getting it at a store!

P.S. Where are you located?

I dont think T5 HO's are an option as the shortest length of bulb is 22" with fixture around 24" so they would definitly spill over the sides of your tank. I'd go with metal halides to penetrate the depth of your tank. Just wait for a deal from someone from this board, im sure someone will chime in soon with just what you'll need
