In Canopy T5 Retrofit w/ATI Ballasts or ATI Sunpower Fixture?

They Got My Number
I have all the parts to do a 4x24" retrofit inside a canopy but I'm a little worried about how close the fixture will be to the water (4" off the water) in a 20g tank (12" depth).

The retrofit would use:

  • Twistlock End Caps
  • ATI 2x24w Ballast (x2)
  • TEK 4x24" T5 Reflector (individually contoured)
  • Various Fans to Cool Bulbs/Evacuate Heat

I love the way the canopy looks on the tank, but don't want to bleach everything out (almost all SPS).

The other option is just hanging a 4x24w ATI Sunpower that I also have on hand.

This is the tank in question without the canopy (blocking the light):

Without the canopy (still cloudy from just moving everything over):
