Greg is a good guy, well worth the 25 mile cruise but I would call ahead to make sure he has what you want in stock.
A six lamp Tek T5 will put enough light in a 55 to keep any high light critter anywhere in the tank you want. Just stay away from shrooms and such....

Depends on the 14K lamp. There are a lot of people using the Phoenix 14K who don't run actinics. I ran EVC 14K lamps and there was no need for...
Watts really mean nothing. 440 watts of VHO's won't put near the light in a tank 500 watts of halides will. A cheap 400 watt metal halide with a...
Not all T5's are created equal. If you are looking for a complete hood Sunlight Supply's Tek light or a company called Aquactinics are the way to go...
If the sheild is going to be very close to the lamps you need to use tempered glass. Plastic will melt or at least discolor and regular glass with...
I finally took the 250 watt halides off the 125 and put the T5's back on. I really like the look much better. More detail shows up with the...
I guess it will depend on the lenses they use. The moonlight LED's I have shimmer big time. Your LED's may have a lense designed to make a glow...

Rainer a microbrew? :) I can tell you that the bears in Yosemite prefer Pepsi over Diet Coke 23 to 3. We had one drag an ice chest out from under...
Color looks nice but my T5's were 5 footers so I couldn't do an apples to apples comparison as far as output. I think the ultimate use for the VHO T6...
You are not a lighting idiot, in fact one might say quite brilliant to be smart enought to ask questions to educate yourself before buying;D...
Yes, Couple of six footers and 1 or 2 fours
Cool! You newbes anyway:)
One overflow might have been installed a little higher than the other. You may just need to add more water to the system to make things work right.
You are probably better off sticking with what you have. Just keep up with your lamp changes (8~12 months) and you will have enough light for most...
Halogen lights wont work, wrong spectrum. Have you seen these...
Raise the cup as high as it will go until the skimmer settles in. Once it breaks in you can adjust the cup down to collect skimmate that is at least...
