Thank you very much! I like t5s alot. I bought some zoos awhile back that was encrusted with a small piece of some kind of sps abot the size of a dime and it has doubled in size in two months. I like my tank "dirty and natural looking".

Just as a suggestion, maybe show some before and after pics for the people who don't remember your tank when you had PC's? It'd be nice for people to see what a step up T5's are from PC's.

Yeah. I am planning on purchasing T5's for my 55. I was thinking about the Odyssea 542w combo with MH's, but I am a little gun shy from what I have read about them. I was thinking about the 4x54w, or 6x54w setup. Now I know I am definitly getting T5's. Can I ask what brand of lights those are? And maybe where did you get them?

I would really like to see some before and afters, and if you could... the k rating please? Do these have individual reflectors per lamp? i have 8 39 watt T's on a 65 tall I really like the lighting. But my fixture has 1 reflector, was thinking about doing a mod on it. I think mine has about the same amount of light at the bottom as you'rs does. And like I said its a tall. Wondering about "punch" in the tank, as i dont have but a few zoo's right now. They do love it BTW.

Theyre Current t5s. I really like em alot. I cant find any pics of the tank under pcs but if you do a search with my screen name there are some pics with the pcs. All the corals in the tank are easy to keep and they were fine under pcs but wahen I put the t5s on they REALLY came to life.
