Like I said, I wouldn't have though so myself. I've got 6x40 over my
75g tank. One possible explaination is that George is using good tubes
(Tritons, and some other tube, I don't remember what it was..).
In my case, my 6x40 isn't as bright as it should be because of a
lack of decent reflectors, and older tubes that need to be replaced.
What kind of tubes are you using? I've now got a mix of Tritons,
10000K, and GE Chroma 50.
