Better than the $40 each I've seen them for in Calgary.

back when looking for retros for T5 seemed the top two were the SLR and TEK2.

If considering bending your own, this link shows the profiles.

I just finished (about a month ago) an 8 bulb 48" fixture. My tank is 48"x24" and I think 10 bulbs would've been too much of a squeeze as I also have a profilux simu-led strip tucked into the middle.

I chose the Ice-Cap reflectors, J&L carries those now as well and they are a step up from the sunlight supply.
