Nova T5's diary

[ejensen]

I have read and read how you must have individual reflectors for these lamps or they are useless. Well I just set up a 20 gal with the current T5 fixture. I think it is better than what people say. With this said I am going to put this fixture to the test. Tomorrow I am going to get a clam to see how it does. I bet it does as good as my other tank with MH's. If I can find a LFS with some Acro frags I'll try that as well and keep everybody informed with my results.
Can anyone with this fixture share their results and pic's of thier tanks. Right now all I have in the tank is some zoo's that are doing great and some mushrooms.

A 20 gallon is really shallow so it will be hard to prove anything about which lighting does better since just about any light will penetrate a 20 gallon tank.
