hello everyone,
I was thinking of switching to t5 lightning over my 3' 65 gallon mixed reef my question is can I buy a t5 shop fixture from Lowes or something and put aquarium/reef bulbs in them or can you not run the reef t5 bulbs in a shop fixture is the ballast different or something or does it matter or could I just buy regular t5 from there for cheaper and make a DIY fixture any info or help would be appreciated thx so much
