    I was wondering if a dual t5 HO light fixture will be sufficiant enough for a 20g long. Was thinking a ati 24" 24 watt 12000k and a ati pure actinic 24" 24 watt for bulbs want to keep mostly softys and some sps.

    Alright thank you. Any idea how far the fixture should be above the water?

    Really it is a matter of taste. 4-6 inches should be just fine.
