Does anyone have experience with the 48" x 5-1/2" 108 Watt Nova Extreme SLR T-5 Fixture? I am interested in starting my first saltwater tank. am planning on a 75 gallon and I would like it to be reef capable in time. I am planning on starting out slow with at first a FOWLR tank and eventually advancing to adding some easy beginner corals and then to some more advanced corals as I get the hang of it. Would this light fixture allow for my advancements or do I need to look into something else?

Thank you!

or can someone at least tell me if t5's can be used for all corals or only beginners?

I've grown all corals under t5s. Just upgraded to LEDs. But loved t5s just not replacing bulbs.
