T5 Lights

I've been searching T5's for awhile now. I know a lot of you use them. Which ones do you have and where can I find them? Depending on which tank I get they'll either be 48 or 72.

Re: T5 Lights

check the 2 drs for your lights. Individual reflectors DO make a big difference in your lighting. 50% of your lighting comes from the reflectors above the lights.
