No need to give any more lectures. Just Google Metal Halide vs T5 and you'll find plenty of them

If you have any information showing MHs producing more lumens per watt than T5s please post it.

Hey Albert. I don't think a Red Giant can exist that close to a Black Hole

that tank is nice and i've seen tons of T5 tank that are amazing in terms of aquascaping and total tank health.

But the T5 tanks always look like a pastel explosion to me. I love the more intense reds and blues and greens and purples you get from from MH. i don't or ever will care about par values, only what looks pretty to me.

If I saw an all T5 tank in person, i might rethink it, but haven't yet had a chance.

My T5's heat the tank up enough as it is. MH, Dang, I'd need to run the sump lines through the Freezer LOL

Kind of off topic, but not really...

Where are you guys buying your submersible probe light meters? I need one because I'm too anal to not know.

You know what I saw today at the Sony store? A 6 or 7" OLED TV. It was like two grand and had a contrast ratio of one MEEELION:1 or something ridiculous like that. It was bloody bright too.

OLED = Future (we're talking far future here, like cold fusion and time travel future).
