plans:
fish; pair of true percs.
shrimp goby combo
inverts: 5-6 snails
cleaner shrimp
pep shrimp
corals: rics
zoas
hairy mushrooms
something true percs will host
lots of colors!!!
Sounds good! Can't wait!
You know what else would be cool? if you get a metal halide you could set up an awesome clam garden on your sand bed! I want to do that on my next tank.... if you had a clam garden, tons of awesome zoas and a million colorful rics, I think you would have the best tank ever JMO hehe =)

lol! then your gonna waste alot of money! lol and yea you can have clams under t5 ho
It depends because they aren't as strong as MHs unless they are high output with individual reflectors.
I would recommend the current USA Nova Extreme Pro... I was thinking of getting that T5 fixture for my 10 gal frag tank, but I got a great deal on a 96W PC retro.
