When I started my 65 I had one 2 bulb set - bought an anemone (newbie mistake) then bought another set, then I finally bought my third set of two at Christmas - unbelievable how much light these T5HO put out - then I changed a couple old bulbs with an ATI super purple and blue plus - what a difference - excellent colors. I only leaned that from reading posts here.

When it comes time to replace im going to be putting in ATI...idk what kinds yet
Also do VHOs have more output?
(HO - High Output)
(VHO - Very High Output)
 
I had forgotten how much I loved the looks of T5's until I saw your pics. What a huge difference! Thanks for the comparison pics. I just may have to switch out the rest of my PC's now...

Yes, i think im starting to love T5 better then MH and PC.
if you have MH then your color range and flexibilty isnt as good. Also alot more power is consumed raising electric bills. But with T5, you can choose many different color bulbs to get what ever kind of color you like most.
