    Hi guys,

    I'm wondering is it possible to modify a 2X24W T5 lighting casing to house 1 additional 24W tube so it would be 3 tubes in total.

    If it is possible where can i get it done?

    largely depends on your light housing.
    you'll need sufficient space to add the tube as well as tube holder.

    you can check with nature aquarium.

    Even if it is possible, it is not advisable, you need a better light spread instead of all cramp together in one tight space. It is better to modify your light set to individual reflector (assuming currently it isn't).

    Thanks guys for the suggestion. Its a 2X24W aquazonic by the way. Maybe I will take Shadow's advice by getting individual reflectors.
