MH in canopy, looking to add LED or T5's

[codydemmel4]

Okay so I am thinking about going with this tank and it comes with a canopy that has MH's built in with fans. The canopy is 72x27x11 I have attached the pictures of the canopy to this. The MH's that is has are these: https://www.reefspecialty.com/400-w...en-bright-reflector-reeflux-bulb-ballast.html

except these are 20" instead of 16 so there isnt much room to play with as you can see in the pictures. I however would like my tank to be SPS only and have great growth and color. I also love the blue look throughout the tank. Also what bulbs would you recommend for the MH?

I do not think I would be able to fit any T5's anywhere in this hood but I think I would be able to put some LED's in there varied throughout the hood. However I am horrible when it comes to this and I would greatly appreciate any thoughts on what to do with this set up.

after doing some more research, I would like to add 2 T5's on each side. Whether that be 4 36" T5s on each side or only 2 60" T5s on each side.

I am wondering what is needed to add these to the setup as I know nothing about this unfortunately but am very interested in adding these.

I found these but I was hoping that there would be a more cost efficent way, maybe thats not possible with this setup.

Those are great T5 retrofits. The problem will be figuring out how to fit them in there (you're gonna need a new hood).
