ATI Powermodules

[Tracey2]

who sells the ATI Powermodules without led's, the bigger fixtures 48"or 60".

Also, why when when they add a few led's do the fixtures go from $600-800 to $2200???

You would be looking at the ati sunpower fixtures. Most places sells them like reefgeek, BRS, and premium aquatics...

Do they not make the powermodules anymore, I have one and I like the fact that they have more fans.

Powermodule now has leds in it..

There is also a t-5 dimmable sunpower...

They no longer make the powermodule. There was a thread awhile back that compared par and although the PM had higher par is was marginal. The sun power is the best strictly T5 on the market now. Used PM's are always in the classified section though.

and I would be happy to add the led but to jump that much in price is crazy

thanks for the info

in that way, what PAR goes to?

 

[Tracey2]

does the sunpower come in a 10bulb fixture?

I dont think they do anymore.

 

[Tracey2]

ok, does anyone make a nice 10-12 bulb T5 fixture?

In the united states no I don't think so anymore.. Matter of fact ATI is the only that make 8 bulb.. There used to be others like Sfiligoi and tek.

Don't think so, but the 8 bulb Sunpower has crazy PAR. I guess you could buy (2) 6 bulb fixtures.

there are pacific sun and giesemann that make 10 and more tubes..

or better 2x6 bulbs ATI...

You were complaining about the price of the ATI fixture.. holy cow that is even more...

I forgot about the pacific sun fixture but that is high priced...

The Giesemann fixture I believe are not available yet... They also have a brand new T-5 fixture coming out..

 

[ZON]

is matrixx 2 dimm like picture up there

 

[Tracey2]

I love the ATI fixtures but I don't see a comparable without going to 2 fixtures, the new ATI seems to be more led than T5 and I love my T5's.

My new build is 14' long x 36" wide x 30" deep, maybe my question to you all should be how would you light this tank. Mixed reef.

 

[FranktheTankTx]

I guess it is open top - one heck of a build.

Too bad you couldn't build a suspended canopy & cram it full of T5s. Probably could build it pretty sleek & modern looking. Clearly $$$ is not a concern if you're building a 14' tank lol
