I have a tank that looks like below photo.

It is 52" in lenth, but actual length is about 48" since there is a overflow box in the right side.


I'm going to convert it to the F/O tank with bare bottom.
and some tonga branch rock.

I'm considering to put the T5 pendant,

My initial preference goes toward 36" Tek Light: 4-39W T5 HO Fluorescents from SLS.

Do you have better idea or recommendation than this?
Do you think 36" is too short? Do I have to go 48" one?
Which combination of light bulb do you recommend for F/O tank?

Thanks//
