Hi

I have big dilemma!!!Is Giesemann REFLEXX 6x54 adequate for area 120cm x 60cm.I see problem becouse manufacturer have put 6 T5HO in only 20cm .Can this model spread light equali over 60 cm if he is centerd(20cm open space,20cm unit,20cm open space) and 15-20cm above aquarium)?http://www.giesemann.de/userfiles/downloads/100-D-20060512130641.pdf.Thanks in advance.

I use 4x 54 watts over the same area.

More than enough.

Hi Tom

I can buy 4x54w.That is about 0.5w/1l as you recomend often.But what do you think about Reflexx model?4-6 tubes in 20cm/8 inch,no parabolic reflectors!!!I'm a bit suspicious about Reflexx l.Is he enough for 120wx60dx55h aquarium. Do you have experience with reflexx or something similar?Thanks.
