Default Re: DIY Lighting - Florescent Lighting Confuses Me

Maybe I am lazy but I've had my eye on these T5 fixtures for some small projects. I saw them at a local club members fish room and was impressed by their size and price. And that club member grows plants like crazy.

Coralife F/W T-5 Aqualight Double Strip Light-24"
$45 and they frequently go on sale. Great price for everything you need reflectors and bulbs included.

The Coralife F/W Aqualight T-5 is a double lamp fixture ideal for freshwater and planted aquariums. Includes one Colormax Full Spectrum and one 6700K T-5 (5/8 diameter) fluorescent lamp. Features an on/off switch, a built in electronic ballast, sleek black aluminum housing, a highly polished reflector, acrylic lens cover and adjustable width tank mounts. T-5 lamps are 14 watts each.
