Do all bulbs need to be installed in a T5 fixture?

I am in the process of buying a T5 fixture. I only need 6 bulbs but the cost of the 8 bulb fixture is only a few dollars more. I would like to buy the 8 bulb fixture and remove 2 of the bulbs until it's time to upgrade my tank. Will this work or do all the bulbs need to be in?

Thanks,

Michael
 
I'm thinking of buying the Current Nova Extreme High Output T5 Fixture-8x54Watt-48".
 
These 2 are also options:

Current USA Nova Extreme Pro 48" T5 6x54w 10K/460

6x54W T5 HO Fixture with 4 Lunars - 48"
