MH flickering, any ideas?

So did you order a T-5 fixture? if so what did you get?

I ended up getting 2 24" Nova extremes for a total of 4 lights. Added them to my existing T5 to make 6. It's hard to look at such a dim tank now, being that I've downsized from my 400 watt MH. I'm looking into getting 1 more Nova extreme to add some more light.

so....thats what 144 watts? that just a hair under what i'm running......what bulbs do you have in them?

If there still the stock bulbs you might notice a large difference once you replace them?

Also, do you have them mounted in you hood?

[danny zubot]

They are mounted in the hood, which situates them a little higher then I think they were intended. I'm going to try and post some pics in my tank build thread to see what everyone thinks.
