I'm just wanted to hear your experiences with the Current USA Nova Extreme 24" T5 light fixture (4x24w). I am looking for lighting for my 20H that I am going to set up in the next week or so. Right now I have a 175w SE 10k MH and a 32w CF actinic that I was thinking about making a hood for, but the hood would have to be huge for the light to be high enough off the water... Any opinions ideas?
24" Nova Extreme?

I've got the Finnex 24" 4 light t5 over my tank right now. Both are great and affordable light units if all you want to keep is shrooms, zoos, LPS, and a few hardy SPS pieces. Right now I want to upgrade to the tek light sunlight supply makes. The Finnex costs quite a bit less than the nova though. nanotuners has the Finnex for about $115.00. Personally I go ahead and spend the extra $$ and get the tek light. But it really depends on what you want to keep.
If you want checkout the TEK light aquabuys has the best price for it. You have to buy either the tank mount kit or hanging kit separate though (which to me seems stupid).

i love t-5. i have a 24" nova on my 20L and it works great, does not heat my water at all. the only thing i dont like about it is that they do not have individual reflectors. tech t-5's do they r more money but the light is brighter by like 300% they sell them on reefgeek for cheap
