Because the OP had several good answers on page one that covered his questions very well. Where were you on page one? Also because every lighting thread has to be LED vs T5 vs halide...of course.

Thanks sphelps , helpful reply . Im going to follow aquattros lead on the 8 bulb fixture but if that dosent pan out I know of a 6 bulb for sale and ill go for that . I wanted a t5 fixture due to the efficiency , lack of heat and the fact I don't need to become a subject expert just to pick a light .
