Default 6X55 AH or Tek T-5 fro 75G
The 6X55 AH kit installed in a canopy would cost me:
Kit 200.00
Bulbs 70.00
Canopy 230.00
---------------------
Total: 490.00 for 4.4 WPG

The TEK T-5 8 bulb Cost (I’m leaning torwards the 8 bulb one cause its 19” wide and the tank is 18” wide which will give me better light distribution.)
Fixture 450.00
Hanging Kit. 30.00
------------------------
Total 480.00 for 5.76 WPG

Ant pros or cons you guys can think of.

I really like the idea of not having a Canopy. Since I have one on my 55G and its a pain to prune and clean the tank. But it does look nice.
Would the Tek fixture leak out lots of light into the room?
