About LinkBacksI currently run 2 4 bulb t5 ho fixtures on my 8 foot reef tank. I can get a decent deal on a 6 bulb t5 fixture. Is it worth upgrading to 2 6 bulb fixtures compared to 4 bulbs. Or should I save up for metal halides?

First of all, I won't be saving up for metal halides. Go LED.
I have just replaced two canopies with LED and T5HO and has lots of compact fluorescent and VHO with IceCap ballast which can drive T5HO. If you can build a 8 ft wood canopy, I have lots of good deal for you
