Without hesitation I bought a Compact T5ho lighting fixture. I swapped it out
with my other fixture and in two days my plants were melting. This fixture
is for high light setups correct? I should have bought the T5no fixture possibly
instead. What kind of high light plants could I use if using the fixture? Can
I grow carpet plants as well? It's a 48" fixture over a 60 gal tank. What if
put this fixture over a 40 gal tank to grow a field of HC.

Raise the fixture to 18" above the tank that should get you to a decent light level. You will be able to grow almost anything with it as long as you are using pressurized CO2 and fertilizing heavily.
