Keep VHS or covert to t5

Ok so years ago I had a system that used vho. I use half 50/50 bulbs. And other half the attinic. The I added my to the system ten years agon. I have always supp system with the vho. I like the added color. Tank is 31 deep. Tank is built into wall so look of fixtures ect not issue. Everything hangs from ceiling on pully.

Question. I use ice cap ballasts,,, they also can run t5?
Question. Is t5 better than vho.?

I can do a easy conversion. Just replace the holders on the reflectors to accomadte t5. Do I want to?
