I really dont know which Lights to go with on my 210gal, so I let the wife decide. She like the T5's better. So Im selling two 24 inch fixtures. They come with 14K Hamilton bulbs used for around 8 months--Per Seller, a 4" fan, and two 32W actinic bulbs. I never got around to getting a Ballast. Asking $225. for both. or $125 each. NO SHIPPING, pich up or I'll meet you somewhere...Thanks for your interest.

Man why you always selling the good stuff when im broke? Those would be perfect for my 72 bowfront. If i ever get around to converting it. Oh well.

what's up cuz,
maybe i can buy the light but, my tank is a 2 gallon tank?
you think it might be a good idea?:)
 
I was going to use the Ice cap 660. But any 250W ballast would run these. I heard that Icecap extends the bulbs life a little more than any other ballasts.
 
TTRex94, if your serious let me hear what you have in mind, contract, or something. Thanks

RockStarFish, I really would hate to ship these. Too much glass, like I said it comes with a Glass shield that protects the bulbs. I wouldnt even know how to start wrapping these up. I'll keep you updated though...if I change my mind. Thanks for the interest.
 
I'm interested if u still have them...Can u pls asnswer a couple of questions? I've never used mh before, only pcs.

1. how big of a tank will 1 24" fixture support? how big for both? Will both be overkill on a 55 gal? will both be sufficient for a 5' long tank?

2. Do i need a separate ballast for each fixture or will 1 ballast support
both?

3. If the bulbs are already 8 months old then they will need replacing in around 4 months right?
 
Hey Seaduck, it really depends on what is your taste. I believe one 250MH would be sufficient enogh for a 55gal tank. You can always raise them up or lower them if you feel the light is too intense.
You will need two seperate 250W ballasts.
I heard MH bulbs last 2 years but you should replace as soon as the light starts changing yellow?? Im really not an expert and have never used these lights. Im going off of what I read on other threads. If anyone knows more info please chime in, and correct me if Im wrong. Thanks
