Looks nice and clean. How many bulbs you go for in the TEK?

I would have done 6 bulb on a standard 90/g just to play with different color combinations (more bulbs), but my overflow box only allowed for a 4 bulb fixture. Anything more would have been a waste. I really like it though. Plenty of light and easy to install. Awesome fixture for the money. Highly recommend a TEK T5 set up.

Yup, I remember you asking about the lights and overflow issue. What combo of lights did you get?

Very sharp looking rig, good choice sir! I have a 4 54 watt bulb t5 rig too, with two ATI aqua blue specials and two actinics and my corals are doing quite good, even in a relatively new tank (9 months in) well, except for my acros they are slow to grow but i idon't think it's the lighting.

Thanks guys...

I have

Blue plus
Purple plus

Only been running two bulbs and it's bright as heck.

When I get some coral in the tank, I'll run both on a schedule.
