Lighting a 65G

[Bk718]

And as i learned today that its best to look for the fixtures with individual reflectors, this will give you maximum use from each bulb.
I might be considering selling my 2x55ahsupply soon for a catalina one.

DING DING DING DING!!!!

before you order call them and ask them to replace the actinic bulbs with 6700-10000K (free replacement) and ask if they can give you a deal on the legs (who knows you might need them)

I know what you mean, I recently purchased a Nova Extreme Pro 6x54, for that reason. The individual reflectors, and the extra width, make it alot better than a PC fixture.

yee dont get me wrong i love ahsupply and believe that their reflectors deliver that extra 60% of light than a regular one. But would love to try other things.

what tank size you have that lighting on?

80gal Tall, but I only run 4 bulbs, the Current brand 10k and 6700k bulbs. But it puts out more light than what it replaced, a Coralife Fixture w/ GE 9325k and 6700k pairs.



But, I wish AHsupply would do T5 retrofit, since the ballast they use works with both light types, CF/T5, and they obviously know how what their doing when it comes to reflectors.

you bought the one with actinic bulbs and replaced them or is there actually a fixture out there with them proper bulbs already included
