Compact Florescent Question - 12-12-2007, 12:23 AM

I have an 80 gal fish and planted tank.
I have been telling ya'll that I have 6X55 watts of CF, which I was equating to 330 watts.
Or is it?
If I put these end to end like a T5 making 3 solid runs or bulbs would this not make 165 watts 3x55?
55 watts each run or bulb length. W/ AH supply ref.
I am sure this has been discussed and I did do a search for compact lighting and am sorry but I need your help Batman.

Yes I am from Texas! Ya'll

What is my true watt?
Is it enough?
High plant mass, Pressurized Co2, lighting about 4 inches above the tank. 400 gps flow.
ADA stuff.
I am thinking about buying 3X55 watts T5, what do you think?

Thank You
Mike Bro
