Does anybody use t5 bulbs in their lights? I was thinking of buying the Coralife T-5 Aqualight Double Strip Light....But it seems most people use t8 bulbs ..

I really just want a light that will show case my fish well. The tank is not planted . I would like to leave the option open to try some low light plants later on. I dont want to buy the Compact fluorescent because i might not plant the tank and the additional watts might increase my alge growth. I was also looking at the All-Glass Single Deluxe Strip Light..

Best pm a mod and ask to move it across to the planted or hardware section
Once you have specific questions it's best to post in the approriate section as you'll more often get a quicker response by the regulars who have greater knowledge in that section.
