T5 Fixture choice for a 21" deep tank
I am setting up a 26 gal bow front. It's going to be mostly fish and a few softies with LR. looking to keep shrooms, GSP and kenya tree coral. Should I be good with the 2 bulb T5 (48WATT) Fixture? or do I need to go with the 4 bulb(96WaTT)
I am thinking 96 WATT is a bit much for what I wanna keep. Thanks |

Try posting your question in Grim's "T-5 Q and A thread". He'll have a good recommendation for you.

Current makes a 24" T5 2 bulb fixture with single light reflectors. If you swapped out the stock bulbs with 2 ATI bulbs I think you would be fine with 2 bulbs considering what you want to keep.
