Anyone using the Iquatics six tube t5 fixture?

[Chrispowell]

I'm looking at this fixture to give me a better and stronger light coverage over my aquarium.

My tank is only 16" deep so wondering how high 6 39w tubes would roughly want to be?

I'm wanting the six tube fixture to add a red bulb and probably a blue tube in with the whites, will light spill on this be really bad?

Thanks

How long is your tank?
A Chihiros LED is roughly the same price, comes with a dimmer and they do a RGB version to give better colour retention if your tank is 60cm or less.
The running costs would be cheaper too.
Just something to think about.

120cms I currently have two 46w zetlights but I'm tempted to go back to t5 as I'm not massively impressed with LED
