so...I know there are systems out there that run SPS on only T5's...I'm assuming this can be done with Anemone tanks as well. Thinking of switching to all T5...tired of the electric bill of 3 MH. Need to cut back on bills to save for a house of my own...and quit renting this one...lol

Also...How many HO T5's equal 3 MH's on a 6' tank...in par or whatever??

What is the wattage of the MH's?

what I was going to use, which is what I already have, is 2 175w SE MH's and in the center 150 HQI DE bulb. The tank is a 220 which is 30" tall...about 5" sand bed. So it's pretty tall
