Send me a PM when you're ready to sell!

Those Sun Blasters must be NO T5s, not HO T5s....???

Myka, the Sunblasters are actually HOT5's. I've replaced the stock 6700k bulb with first a 10,000k 39w and then an Aqua Blue+. I have a Fiji Purple on the way for it since I'm still disapointed in the color of my light with a 10k MH and the lousy PC Actinics from Coralife.

Anyone have a light meter? I have a hard time believing these SunBlasters aren't a waste of money...

Haha...well I don't know what to tell you. They don't come with a reflector as they are aimed at the hydroponic industry but reflectors are available as I showed you with the link to Prairie Reef.

I don't like how I've had to set them up, but they sure have brightened up my tank and that's just one 39W.
