Hey guys

I want to add some T5 to my tank by doing a retrofit.

Can someone explain what I need?

I'd like to buy the gieseman reflectors. What else do I need for T5's?
Ballast?
Waterproof end cap?
Anything else?
Is the wiring included as part of the ballast or will I need to do some electrical work?

I'd love to be able to fit 4 t5 reflectors...2 each side of my Reefbreeders Photon LED but not sure if I have the space...I can't find the dimensions of the reflectors.

Also is it possible to be able to squeeze them in by having the reflectors at an angle versus pointing straight down?
