What are you trying to prop? I'm not sure you'd have enough par running mostly actinic bulbs. Also, to maximize light using T-8's, it would be better to use a shallow tank (like a 40 breeder) rather than a taller tank like your 55. Maybe you can pick one up cheap in the used equip forum or on Craig's list. I know our Petco's have occasional buck a gallon sales on tanks.
