Ultra High End Equipment - Guaging Interest

Correction, Sfiligoi was bought in mid Nov, not Sept. So this is just a little over half year old.

Also, Deltec was bought in Dec.

Dropping the price of the lights to $1600. Great deal for pendant and ACLS ballast combined.

How much of an area does the penant cover? What size of a tank do you have it on right now? Is that the only lighting on the tank?

Edit: What kind (brand) of bulbs are in the fixture now and how old are they?

[dirtyreefer]

The pendant would cover max a 4'x4' cubed tank. I have it on my 94g cube (it is the only light needed) right now but I have the pendant sitting really low so if it was raised to about 12" above the water level is would cover more area.

As for the bulb, right now I have an XM 10K bulb which was installed in Feb. I love this bulb as it's the highest PAR bulb, and the 4 actinics balance out the blueness of the tank. Looks awesome. Previously I had a BLV 14K bulb from Nov-Feb which I found too blue (but others may like it on the bluer side). I would include both bulbs for the buyer to determine what they liked best, but plenty of life left on both.

Thanks for that information. What brand of T5 bulbs are in the fixture and again - how old?

The T5 bulbs are AquaScience and they are as old as the unit itself (Nov 2006). Plenty of life left in them as you do not need to swap out actinics very often as they are mainly used for esthetic purposes.
