Im doing a retro fit t-5 set up on my canopy over my 180

Right now there are single reflector per bulb, I have some other reflectors that came from some lights I had that went bad.

I plan on using 6 3ft bulbs (3 on each side) Would I be better offer covering the whole under side of the canopy with a mixture of the the reflectors that I have and then put the bulbs, or should I stick with the single reflectors?

Trying to get the most light I can with what I have to work with
 
Single reflectors would get you the best light into the tank.
