The fixture brackets rest on a 5" tall open top hood.<a href=showthread.php?s=&postid=6529390#post6529390 target=_blank>Originally posted</a> by smokez01
hey danano, do u have ur t5 fixture resting on the edge of the tank, or did you purchase any 'legs' to hold it up?
local LFS that source from all over the Pacific plus frag exchanges<a href=showthread.php?s=&postid=6903857#post6903857 target=_blank>Originally posted</a> by PaulChiasson
where do you get a majority of your corals?
That may be true with MH bulbs. However, T5s run cooler and are probably less susceptable to breakage.<a href=showthread.php?s=&postid=7066957#post7066957 target=_blank>Originally posted</a> by crownvic02
My LFS said that with them that close that water could splash up and break the bulbs. That was my concern....
Absolutley gorgeous tank by the way.

Amazing tank danano! :eek2:
You have inspired me to go HO T5's instead of MH and give it a shot. Ill be picking up the 48" Tek Light: 8-54W T5 HO fixture for a new standard 75 gallon tank 48x20x18 ill be setting up.
Can you give me any recommendations for bulb choice? I like the more bluish color tanks. Something like the color of 20k XM's MH bulbs if you have seen them. Id like colors to pop out when viewing polyps/yuma's/acans/sps/ etc and would like to be able to do a dusk/dawn effect with timers. Can you give me a idea for bulb choice with my needs??
