T5 lighting question

[MiSo]

would this fixture be a good idea?

http://www.aquatraders.com/index.asp...ROD&ProdID=239

comes with 4x54 watt bulbs. they are 12,000k
would my plants thrive with these bulbs?
fixture is going over a 75 gallon aquarium (roughly 285 liters)

Isn't one of these available in Aquamarin's offer?

I have the 2 x 24W one. Can confirm that it's Parabolic reflectors. Intensity was good.

I had to change both tubes to OSRAM 6000K though.

12000K is going to be blueish.

Even 10000k is blueish i find ..

just so you guys know.. poster is from the US.. so aquamarin's offer isnt really valid..

Miso.. i wouldn't go the 12k way if you were into growing plants.. that set also doesn't have any good reflectors on it... thats important..

i figured i can rig some kind of reflector up so that i'd work out for me.
i was just really concerned about the bulbs.
thank you guys for the input.
