Opinions please! :D

I have the aquaticlife one for my 155.
AquaticLife T5 HO Light Fixture

Although its 60 inches, and 8 bulbs, I love it! I love the timer built in, and everything in my tank is perfect. I just HAD to frag my leather and I only got it in February. It doubled in size since then.
I had thought about MH as my tank is 30 inches deep, but then the possible heat/electric bill made me go with the T5. With my sump/fuge, its about 200 gallons total. Hope this helps! Good luck and keep us posted.

 

wow, thank you all! My tank's 5ft long, 19 wide and tall. I'll probably always stay an 'intermediate' salt guy. Have had this tank going on 4 years and I'm just not home enough or dedicate enough time to devote to the more difficult corals. I like them, but as my time deficit and age creep up and up, I find I like to have to only spend a moderate amount of maintenance on the tank and it's inhabitants. I may see if I can find a similar setup (T5 HO w/lunar) with 6 bulbs at 48". I love halides, but I keep a canopy over the tank and the current fixture generated a lot of heat. It had no fans built in though.

 

ok, I originally said it was a Coralife fixture which I've now discovered it was an Odyssea or a cheaper knock off of a Coralife. LFS said an asian group named Jebo or something was making knock offs that allegedly have caught fire... anyhoo...the one I've now is 4x65w w/lunars...LFS has a CF Coralife 4x65 w/lunars for $230. Going to 'google' odyssea and see if i can find anything

Okey doke...Googled '48 odyssea' and found what they were talking about. Apparently Jebo and Odyssea at some point got together and just make a cheaper product where some of the units were not UL listed. other issues included their MH unit ballasts catching fire... doh

NOW I'm back to the CF vs. T5 issue :/ lol

 

If you want to go with anything from current i would pick the Nova extreme pro 6x54watt, imo

 

OK! I think I've finally figured out my best option....
