I know a lot of people use to bash them, but i ran an 4 bulb t-5ho odyssea over my 20 gallon bowfront reef tank and couldnt have been happier. I was able to keep anything i wanted under them and for 69 bucks you cant beat it. In fact, im running an oddysea over my 55, my dad on his 58, and my brother on his 72 bow. They are made alot better than they use to and we have all had great experiance with them. If your looking for a good, cheap fixture you cant go wrong with them!
OK....So I got the Aqualife 24" T5's from Creation Reef (they were great to deal with)
On the tank and all I can say is WOW.....The light is bright and its not missing any part of the tank...
It has the built in timer and was easily programmed....Pics to come...Very cool set up for a 30 gallon tank!

They do. I just bought this same hood. It's amazing. Stock bulbs are awful though. Ordered 4 new ones today through Jenn. :thumbs:
The LED Moonlights are freaking sweet.
These pictures so don't do the tank justice under the LED's.
The Ric is WAY brighter, it looks like a neon pumpkin.
The plate has bright green tentacles and the Zoa's are greener.
This was from another thread I posted on

T-5 Diameter High Output Lamp
Blue Spectrum Peaks at 450 nm
Supplementation Lamp encourages blueing in SPS coral, minor fluorescing.
Recommendations: This lamp is ideally suited to be used as a standalone, or when used in a 2:1 or 3:1 fashion with blue or actinic supplementary lamps.
