Ok so I’m thinking I want to go this route due to limitations above. This would deff give me the all around coverage I need for my acro colonies. The edges are 22”, but 18” would perfectly supply for the area needed…. I cannot find the fixtures tho… would reptile fixtures work if I just switched out the bulbs?

Any T5 fixture would work fine with bulbs made for reef.

Just make sure there is a compatible bulb in both size and wattage.

Another option would be to use LED bars with a 3D printed mount.

Thank you, I’m not up to speed with T5 specs and the details of the materials included. Iv just read enough on them to know I like the potential benifits you gain by including them in your set up. And since I currently run 2 AP9x lights, the “blanket” would be great since the Kessils are very spot lightish.
I am also looking into the AI Blades, those really look like they would do a good job. And wouldn’t have to even mess with bulbs.
