i use a sunblaze 4'-8 tube t-5. 6 are 6500k. 2 are 2700k. i like it. i also, for a cheap, but effective light, screwd 2 4' sho lights to a pair of 2x2s, for a frame. changed out the tubes for 6500k blue ones. total cost 35.00. these are t-12's. the plants can rest up against em, to. not so with the hot t-5's. so maybe, add one, to make it a six tube t-12. for a total of about 65. for six tubes.

could get three 2 bulb fixtures of a 4 tube and a 2 tube. might cost a little more that way but ive personally never have seen a 6 bulb fixture.

yeah its gotta be 2ft and 6 tube. id be pushing it trying an 8 tube. 6 would be a better fit its looking like. this maxlume 6 tube is the only 2 ft 6 tube ive found at all. its sold out all over the place so i hope i can get one. im still gonna try and get exact measurements of 8 tube'rs and see if i can make one of those work. my closet is around 28 x 26 or something close to that. i already forgot. but anyways i think i found a couple 8's that would fit, but damn wouldnt i be cutting it kind of close? seems like the 19.5 inch 6 tube would be convienient.
