Looking to supplement my LED light with some T5s. Thinking of adding two of these fixtures. Anyone has any experience (good or bad) with these ? There just does not seem to be too many choices when it comes to dual-lamp T5s.

Look at the fluval T5 fixtures. Their very clean looking and have great spread for T5 units. The aquatic life units look kinda funky chicken imo.
I have the vertex led fixture too and added t5. I was going to add t5 fixtures but when using one aquaticlife dual t5 I decided to go with retro fit t5 kit and add a canopy. The main reason was the shadow created when the led hit the top of the t5 fixture. I needed to raise the t5's so I didn't get the shadow.
You are right. Fluval fixture is much better than the Aquaticlife. Thats what they are using at Aquatic Warehouse on their display tank(and I think also on their frag tanks). It does not come with the bulbs, so thats additional $100 expense, but might be worth it in the long run as they will last longer....

Well, took the plunge and ordered two Fluval units. I think they are worth the extra money Fluval is asking for. They look better, they come with 2-year warranty (vs 1-year on AquaticLife) and the endcaps are water resistant...and the best part, I get to pick the bulbs, rather than using the stock bulbs that come with AquaticLife.
There are the bulbs I picked :-
ATI Blue+
ATI Coral+
ATI Blue+
ATI Coral+
and ATI Purple+ to play around with.....

Good choice of bulbs pk. The purple did not do much for looks or growth when I tried them. I use an equal mix of Blue+, Aqua blue special and Coral+ for my T5 tank.
I think ATI's Blue+ is probably the best T5 bulb out there, adds rich blue color to the tank and SPS. Looking forward to testing out the Coral+ bulb, which did not exist when I was using T5s few years back. Coral plus apparently falls somewhere between Aquablue Special and Blue+ (Growth and color).
