I just purchased a used 6x54w Tek and I was wondering what is the correct wiring for the 2 switches. The previous owner changed the endcaps and I'm not sure he reconnected them well.
Being 1 the last bulb (the one near to the back, where the 2 switches are) and 6 the front one, my order is
Switch A fires up 1 and 2
Switch B fires up 3-4-5-6
Also I have read in the forum that the right distance from water should be 4 to 6 inches. My tank is 18'' in height and I put them at 6 inches. Does this make sense?
It is my first T5 (only MH before) so I'm torn.
Thanks!
