Too Everyone.....
To everyone who has given me advice on lighting, im going to go with T5. Sounds like the best choice. 4x24 Watt bulbs with a moonlight and cooling system with individual switches.

If it is the sundial you will be fine. They come with an individually contoured reflector.

Go with the Current Sundial. Its a newer, upgraded version. The one your talking about has a single reflector. The sundial has an individually contoured reflector. Youll get a lot more light output from the sundial.
