What would be a good t5 fixture for a sps dominated standard 120 g(48-24-24). I was looking at a 8 bulb fixture. Does anyone run any of these over there tanks? Any input will be great. tia

ATI fixtures are the best, but the Tek fixtures work if you are on a budget. I've always wanted the PM but am lacking the cha-ching!!!

+1 on the Dimmable Sunpower. Built in controller is nice...

The powermodule will give you a little more light (5%) and is built a little heavier. If it were my cash I'd get the sunpower.

I wouldnt get the dimmable one.

I am setting up the same tank footprint as you, with a little less height at 21" tall, and im buying the 48" 6 bulb sunpower.

the ati dimmable has a built in controller that is awesome, also there is only 1 power cord...looks nicer if your hanging it without a canopy

Anyone have a tek elite? I have a rkl so a controller isn't high on my list. Or would getting the ati sp wo controller be better.

I would go 6 bulb ATI Powermodule. It will be plenty of light and spread.

I might look into that. I used to live in North West Arkansas
