Yep, I'm finally taking the steps (just became available recently in the western states) to high output T5 bulbs. Each of which put out roughly the equivalent lumens to a 65W CF bulb. I'm actually looking at upping my lumens from 56,000 to 65,000-75,000.
 
I am setting up the 20G for co2 soon, and will be running one 24" HO T5 lifeglo 2 bulb on it. I've got a really nice sword in there, and will be growing my downoi in there.
 
Got the new lights, they are awesome. Reviews will be posted soon. Pics can be found here, or in my blog soon.
