I am looking for suggestions on what fixture to get. I want to upgrade my black box (no reflector) t8 24" 40w max lighting to t5 HO with reflectors, probably 36". I need it to fit under the canopy on my 50gal, I'm not sure of the dimensions right now. I might be able to go with 48". I would prefer something that I don't have to move to feed the fish (on a bracket that leaves a gap above the tank, or suspended from the canopy). Any suggestions are welcome, please explain why you reccomend that unit. Thank you.

Also, does anyone have the Hagen Glo T5 HO 36" Double light fixture or something else in the line? I've kind of been looking at that one, and would like input on it.
 
Also, does anybody have any input on a good LED lighting system for a planted freshwater 55 gal?
