Product and Livestock Highlights for December

[Ephraim]

hey albert, when are you getting in the Aquatinic fixtures? what sizes? any ideas on pricing? what your opinion on these fixtures compared to teks?

I'm anticipating them in about two weeks.

For the time being, I'll only be receiving the 6' - 14 bulb fixtures. Pricing should be roughly $800-$900 each.

As far as a comparrison between these and the Tek's, it's hard to give you any kind of a direct pro/con contrast. The Tek's shine in the budget department. They're excellent lights for what they cost. The Aquatinics are more a deluxe item. Fan cooled fixtures with mirro silver reflectors (Tek's use mirro 7) are definitely going to put the stomp the economically-minded Tek's, but at a cost.

I'd compare the two in such a fashion:

Honda Civic vs. Porsche 911

I'm looking to get 2 36" fixtures, would you be able to get these in? looking for 4-5 bulbs each, it's gotta fit on a tank with a footprint of 72"x12"

Once this first run of Aquatinics is in, we're going to evaluate from there as to whether or not we're going to stock the item regularily or on a order basis.

I will check up on the dimensions for you though.
