Will just put on my new  T-5 light fixture today.  It is great.  My coral colors popped and everything looks so happy.  I'm slowly adapting the coral to the new intensity by running only the actinics most of the day and the others only for a few hours and slowily increasing their time.  I took pics today and plan to take more to see any difference about Christmas time.

I'm glad they worked out for you!

The new 6 bulb TEK T-5 fixture I put in for my Mom is super sweet!  It's nice and thin so it fits well in her hood and provides plenty of light to grow anything she wants in her 90 gallon tank.  The color from the mix of bulbs we got is great too.  The purple bulb really makes the reds POP.
