Default Yippee - I just ordered my new light fixture
After many months of wanting a new light, and searching around. JL is special ordering me a new light.

BELIZE SUN - 5 FT HQI + High Output T5 + LED Lighting Systems

http://www.hamiltontechnology.com/ca...ducts-5/rec/10

I will have a 4ft Coralife Aqua Pro, with new bulbs throughout. The light is a good light, I just wanted a 5ft to fit my 5ft tank. I don't know what I will sell it for, but you can make me an offer.

I am so excited, gave them the deposit, will have in about a week.

I actually just put my Ushio 10K back into my Coralife. I am finding the 14K too blue, so I have ordered it with the 10K hamilton with the 2X 420nm 80W t5HO

I might be the first one in Canada with this. No one has it in stock, as it is new, but looks high end for quality built and built in the USA NOT CHINA

Edit: Now I just have to decide if I am now going to get a second MP40W...

Good looking fixture! it will be nice to have a light that covers your whole tank with no shadows or overhang!

I'd really like to see the maxspect when it arrives from Hong Kong - Fishstreet I presume, I've been following the thread on Reef Central forever it seems.

It looks good.
