Both tanks are amazing... T5's seem to do them very well...

instead of 2 more vho lights, i decided to add some t5s instead. looks like a good move!

Pretty nice looking and only 4 wpg.

Roy, T5's dont factor watts per gallon like MH and VHO's do.

Its this complicated PAR value. It gets more complicated when you factor the ballas you are using (i.e. Ice Cap vs Workhorse, etc).

Dont' worry, those tanks might only be 4 wpg, but they put out an amazing amount of light!
