I currently have two 24 inch PC retro fixtures. In the center i have about 26 inches but I was either thinking of going with four T5 lights or MH. Any suggestions for T5 lights because I am thinking that MH are going to be a problem with the heat under a canopy. Thanks for the response.
I am looking at upgrading my lights. I currently have 2 PC 65 Watt under a canopy over my 54 gallon corner bow front. I would like to go either T5 or MH but it would need to retro fit. I am currently keeping just softies but I would like to venture into LPS and may be SPS. Any recomendations...

Thanks everyone. I just did the super glue process. I have had them in the tank for about 30 minutes glued and they are already opening back up and they have not moved. As always thank you for all the great opinions. I don't know what I would do with everyone on here.
Thanks guys I think I will use the coke bottle idea. I have them in a tupperware in a corner with very little flow. I am going to get a few coke bottles tomorrow and try it out. Good luck with yours Treadwater. I will post pics tomorrow when the lights come back on.
