I currently have my 55 gallon up and running with a 4 bulb T5 setup and everything seems to be relatively happy. The reason I am looking for another fixture is that I couldn't pass up the chance to start a second 55 for a coral only tank I am cycling now, but I don't have another 4 bulb fixture to get me going. I thought about one of those Odyssea "Ebay special" units, but I thought I would check on here first to see if anyone had one gathering dust in the corner. Thanks in advance!
I am thinking that going with another T5 fixture is a good shot to get good growth in the new tank. It was either that or try a pair of the Chinese black box LED's. I just want to get the best bang for the buck.
I do have a fixture that I only used temporarily for 2 months. It's an aquatic life with built in timer and moon lights. It's just sitting my garage if you are interested.
Hey bud, is it a 4 bulb? How much? I am tight on disposable income for fishy stuff. The wife cranked down the purse strings after the last BRS order.
Have a Aquatinics tx5 laying around . If you still need one Ill plug it in and see if it works. Also 2 250 MH with new ballast and reflectors. I went to LED.
Hey bud, sorry I didn't put something on here. I ended up getting a 4 bulb from another member. I really appreciate you taking an interest in my post. How is your growth with LEDs?
