    most 48 inch tanks have a support bar in the middle of them, so there would be a shadow. That isthe same question I asked a while back and the guys on the boards told me to save my money and buy 2 halides one for each side. Just what I ahve been told.

    how many t-5's for a 75 gallon

    I am wanting to get a few retro fits, but I am trying to decide to use t-5's or halides. I have heard that by having 5-6, t-5's Is like having a metal halide, or it puts out the same amount of light. Is this true?
