What kind of lighting fixtures?

[fish2010]

Hello,

I'm looking for lighting recommendations for 2 aquariums. The aquarium sizes are 36/18/16 (50gl) and 48/24/24 (120gl). Both tanks are freshwater. Both tanks are heavily planted. Looking to replace fluorescent with compact. I don't want to spend more than $500 on the total cost of the fixtures - if that's even possible. If anyone has any suggestions or has a compact that's working great, please let me know.

Thanks

Shop around that should be doable. Both tanks are standard sizes, just a matter of how much light ou want and then shopping around.

My T-5s on my 75 which is 48" were 105 each. Gives me around 200 watts.
