Acctually looking at a coralife 2x65w PC fixture online here , may be able to incorperate it inplace of the stock light.

From J&L, try out a UVL AquaSun (10K), and a Giesemann True Actinic. Really nice color, and high output.

Don't bother with PCs if you're wanting to add corals or an anemone at some point...they won't cut it. Buy another T5 unit if all else fails. J&L has good T5 fixtures...a couple different brands, both excellent.

What Myra said, stick with the T5 and you'll have more options.

Ahh, good, thx for the heads up. Would have thought PC would be better cause of the more wattage in same size fixture, but I gues all aint what it appears, huh??

Well, just seen JL for the first time. looking @ Tek light 4 tube, with the cover becaue it will be 2" or so above water. should be ok
