Last Question Before I Use CO2. Just Want to be Sure!!

Zoo med sells a dual T5HO fixture. You could get it at petco. It may not be the best fixture but it will do the trick for you.
What do you recommend for a 6 foot 125 tank if i wanna grow swords, water sprite, micro sword, and green cabombas?
The Coralife T5's would never reach the bottom of the tank with useable light. They are also crap quality. I used to carry them in my store. The original ones I brought in are still running. Every unit after about 2006 crapped out between 2 days and 6 months after purchase. Very cheaply made fixtures. Switched to Current USA and had the same problem. They should call their company Current China. That's where all their stuff is made. Unfortunately, there is no middle ground with T5's. It's either brutally expensive but well made, or affordable to non millionaires but junk.
Here is that start of my reactor. I still need to get the T to inject the co2. The bottom bushing has a 3/4" opening to connect 3/4" pvc pipe to return to the tank. Does it look ok so far? It won't be that big either I have to cut it down.
