I'm looking for a 6'-8' T5 light strip to hang over the back of my tank as I'm not getting great light coverage there. Any recommendations?

Would it be hanging by itself from wires or mounting in a canopy of some sort ? Or maybe screwed to your existing lighting array?

I added this led strip to my aquatic life fixture with self taps. Could something like that work in t5?

What do you have now any pictures? To help the creative juices flow.

I have a reef breeders blue uv light bar gives a nice blue color with a good amount of pop
 
Sunblaster, that was the brand. I was looking to ad them to my leds. But I think I will just go with a new fixture. I’m on the fence for either ATI, grow light, or a hybrid

No help with what you trying to do or mounting situation your just looking for someone to point out a single 6 or 8' t5 fixture? Why not just get (2) 4 foot ones or (2) 3' foot fixtures and butt them together 8' seems hard to find and more expensive...

How about these...

 
Yeah thats a pretty standard commercial style light nothing fancy but depending on what your looking for. I would spray paint them black or a color if it were me.
I meant the sun blasters on Amazon come In 6’ with reflectors. Good for adding extra reef lights
