I've been running mh/vho's my whole reefing life, but am now looking to change to T5's to hopefully save on elctrician $. The tank is 84" long but have room to put 72" lamps in. The depth of the tank is 25" with the lamps around 9" above the water.
Few question I have are, can I get 72" T5's anywhere or do I have o go with a combo to make up 72".
I can more then likely fit 6 in a row from front to back but would like to get away with the least amount. I do have a combo of sps, lps, softies and clams.
So how many do you think I need?
And the big question is what combo of lamps and what brand?
Thanks for your help,
Tony
