Jebo style to T5


HI All,
I've got a Jebo curved front tank about 200ltr (100cm(L)x46cm(H)x46cm(W)(approx. due to curved front end) and I wanted to get rid of the three T8 30w globe set up and rig up a four T5 HO combo with quality reflectors.

Also using DIYT5 HO Ballast set up

Any thoughts?

Many Kindly Fishy Regards
Jason

I know nothing about the electrics of it, but 160W of light is quite a bit for a 53ga tank. I hope you have good CO2 or you may end up with an algae farm
