Those will be a t8 or a t12...Not as good a light and 2x's bigger bulbs. Stay on the path of the t5's. I do want to say this and I'm sure most other reefers that have been doing this for awhile will agree. Take your time and enjoy what you have. We and I mean all of us get into this hobby spend more time thinking about the next upgrade and don't sit back and do what we got into this hobby for, to see all the pretty coral and fish. In this hobby if you move to fast you will miss something along the way. Just keep this in mind anything you do in this hobby over night 9 times out of 10 it will go side ways on you. I am glad to see you are asking question and planing it out. In time you will be more then happy you didn't rush your way through it.
