My tank lights are currently..
What does your (primary) tank's lighting currently consist of? I'm not counting moon lighting by the way !
|
T5 only for my schticks. :)
|
Currently using LED but I'm in the prosses of switch to t5

However going with halides and a sick amount of T5's with my new canopy.....oh....and some par38's in between the halides....might be overkill.... |
Halides+T5s here. I want to know what the "other" lighting is??!

What's T6? There's T8 and T12 but never heard of a T6. There's also no option for halide+t5+led. Seems like lots of options for other.
|
T5 for me.
Currently running 6 blue + 1 actinic 1 purple plus Would like to here what other t5 combos people have |

And that's why there is an "other" option because there can be so many "other" options ? :-) The Google will tell you al about T6 which really should have fallen under "other" as well but I recently found some tanks using them. |

Blue+ Blue+ Coral+ Aquablue Special Blue+ Blue+ |
This poll is so disappointing :) I feel so alone now...

Forgot to include Xenon arc as a possible 'other'. |

I would have liked to build some T5 into my setup, but thought of that AFTER building my canopy 2" too narrow. Oh well. |
there should be a way to select 3 different options for my different tanks:mrgreen:

Currently LED + T5 for me, but hopefully within a week or two it will be "LED, T5 and Halide" (which wasn't a listed option, I guess "other"? :lol:). I'm going to shoehorn 2 Radiums back over my tank, because honestly after going away from Radiums, the tank was just never the same for me. So I'll keep the LEDs for the primary I think, T5's flanking for supplementation, and then the two Radiums will pile drive some additional intensity for mid-day. Will see how it goes, I have to modify my light rack to accomodate all the gear.
|
I seriously didn't know that using all three light technologies at once was a thing :lol: Shows you how behind the times I am.
|
Switched from T5HO to DIY LED last year and never looked back. Loving my LEDs as is everything else.

ATI and happy I re-wired my fixture to control all 4 ballasts 1 and 8 Blue Plus 2 and 7 Coral Plus 3 and 6 Aquablue Special 4 and 5 Aquablue Special and Coral Plus So I run 2 Blue Plus, 3 Coral Plus and 3 Aquablue Special Your mileage will vary And you will probably notice I don't use any actinic bulbs Don't fixate on lights !!! |

How do you like the colour Greg? That's a really white bulb combo. |
My original T5s made my tank look so dark and dungeon looking that the next order I went full on light bright which I quickly discovered was too bright so toned it down to current setup now I bought more lights and going to tone the brights down a lil more to put more emphasis on blue than bright see how that goes
