Can I get some feed back on these lights? I'm looking at the t5 HO 96w. However it doesn't look like they come with atenic nor moon leds. In which case I would have to supplement some how.

Jamie, what size tank are you thinking of setting up?

My 26g bow front.
So a 48 inch fixture would be a bit over kill huh?!!

I have an 8 bulb (I run 5) fixyure on my 90 and LOVE it. I can play around with bulb combos or add/remove bulbs as I need to. If it helps you decide, mine has led moonlights that I don't even have plugged in...you don't need them, you just choose an actinic bulb for the blue spectrum.
I also would ditch the bulbs they come with - the par rating on them is awful. I would use ATI or Geisseman.
I have always seen nova extream as a decent middle of the road light fixture. Much better than many, but sub par compared to others. Its definitly not a coralife, but isnt a tek fixture either.The prices are always right for what you get too.
I wouldn't think twice about investing in one, but if I could afford better, I would.
48" would work iffin I was setting up my 75 buuuut I'm not so I need a 24" fixture. I would really like to house at least one sps))
How many watts for best results?
IMO do like 4x24 t5ho's and you can keep anything you want in that 26 bowfront, especially if you've got individual reflectors.
