Many of my friends in Germany light up their tanks here exclusive with T5. Their tanks are marvelous, them have both SPS and clams. Goes thus both, in the long run is it a question to personal taste.
I have never looked @ it in that aspect it is a very good one one I really like I just tried to convience Vicki that I have a 744 Watt T5 Setup I did for a customer that I have since upgrades to a 400 Watt LED system avaiable for a expeiment. She does want to run that test against her 750 Watts of HQI because of the cost of electricity. I dont blame her I convinced her HQI are a thing of the past like treating with copper
