I didn't take any more pics but if you want to see something in particular then i can take one for you.

I'm still very happy with the switch from MH to T5. There is no doubt that my tank runs less hot then my MH. The active cooling i have on the T5s helps a lot, something that you can't do for MH. I used to use the fans for evaporation but now they are used for cooling the light. My evaporation has gone down significantly, 1/3 of what it use to be and my tank runs no hotter than 77 now where as before it would get at 80 (house is at a constant 74 with heater ever since the winter started). The only regret i have is that some of my corals won't look as nice, especially my blue tipped pink milli and teal staghorn.
