After looking around at lighting options, I've noticed something rather odd. Correct me if I'm mistaken, but T5's seem to be a great option for lighting in aquarium with a little bit of this and that (minus SPS).
My question would be, why is it that T5 bulbs are brighter with less wattage? I'm looking into getting a retro fit kit (looks pricey). We have a cat in the house and I need a canopy to keep her from going fishing.
I'm looking for the inside scoop b4 I decide to invest.
Advice?
Suggestions?
Alternatives?
Pro's and Con's?
Thanks Gang!
