    I was curious on this too, how does it stack on on light penetration vs T5HO
    After the testing a buddy and I did last weekend with T5's I'm really disappointed, however it was a cheap T5 setup we tested even though it had decent bulbs in it, it didn't have individual reflectors

    Would T6ho be good enough to keep clams on the bottom of a 24" tank I guess is the real question I have
