What are T-5 tubes? A certain VHO or Fluoresent what?

George.

T5's are thin fluorescents. Your "typical" fluorescents are the T15's, then there are T8's which are a bit thinner, and then these T5's are thinner yet. HTH

Are'nt " typical " flourescents T12 ?

Cheers

Typical fluorescents would be T12s, and in my inderstanding T5s are the same thickness as Power Compacts. Just as an aside I understand that as thickness decreases lumens per watt increase, and also heat increases. :eek:

T-5's are pretty Cool!
I have a few in my possesion now and they are nice and small as well as bright!

I am using t5 actinic's on my new 230.

Yes, T12, sorry my typo.

Where did you get the t5's from Canadian man?

Re: Banana's
 

Where did you get them Jon :arrow: :question:, and what about ballasts, and sockets. :question:

Those tank pics are enough to make ya cry. That is one of the most stunning tanks I have seen.

For sure, but it raises some questions such as the wattage of the tubes, and the number of them used on the tank. Along with the tank dimensions.
