That's not a typo- 14 feet?
Thats's some size tank. I don't see how you get around not having two 72" fixtures.

Frank, money is always a consideration. I did build a canopy of T5's over my last tank but wanted something a bit more sleek and easy to move this build. I have used Halides and want to get away from them and I am not sold on the led's except to give the tank some shimmer.
Ken, not a typo, 14' long, I know i will need at least two fixtures lengthwise but was hoping to have cover the width with one.

(3) 48" Sunpower would cover the length. I guess (6) Total would cover length & width. Maybe (6) 6 bulb units.
Boy that's a lot of bulbs. I love T5s, my favorite. But how bad do you want T5? lol
I dont' know what would be cleaner - 6 sunpower or a bunch of LED fixtures.

Cleaner or better?
I wouldn't switch from T5 to LED. I would go with metal halide with T5 supplement though if a chiller is acceptable.

Individual reflectors? Rust proof? Good ballasts? Actively cooled?

Here is the light I looked at

Your right, I'm not sure about the rust proof but it does have individual reflectors and there is a two year warranty on the ballast.
