FS: Giesemann Infiniti DE 250w 48" Metal Halide T5 Fixture (custom Polar White)

[Kinetic]

Testing the waters a bit. I just found my mint condition Giesemann Infiniti fixture from back when I had an ELOS tank. This is an Infiniti that was custom built by Giesemann for me, in white. Because it was custom, it cost quite a bit more.

I realized I had kept it because I thought if I ever got back into the hobby with a 48" tank, this would be the exact fixture I'd want. Now I'm back, I'm in with a nano tank, and probably won't get anything larger anytime soon (at most, a 36").

My receipts show I purchased for $1,982 (ordered through Neptune Aquatics back in 2009).

I'll let it go for $1200 firm. Comes with the ballasts and used lamps (phoenix 14k de, and some T5's).

Pickup in San Francisco, Bay Area only.

More on it from back in the day when I set it up:

If you're putting together a new tank, this is the light to get. It's a beautiful fixture, and 100% silent since it uses passive heating. That might sound strange, but I ran it for a long time without having any issues.

It has some used Phoenix 14K lamps, with T5's that have plenty of life left in them.

You will be able to grow anything under these lights.

Still $1200 firm.

Bump!

How the $%#@ is this not sold yet. One of the top two or three lights in the game!

Nobody setting up a 4 foot tank at the moment?

I'm considering just getting a Red Sea Reefer 500 peninsula just so I can put this light over it!

$900 if you pick it up by Monday! This is crazy cheap for this light, I'm sad just thinking about how low this is going. But if it goes by Monday for this price, that'll be nice.

Will you ship?

 

[Kinetic]

Will you ship?

Yes. It would be $1200 + packaging + shipping charges. I'm not sure how much it will be, but let me know if you're still interested.

Just took some new photos of it:

Take it before the weekend for $1000!

 

[Kinetic]

Price dropped to $800. That's it!

what light are you using now?

 

[Kinetic]

what light are you using now?

I have a much smaller tank now (Reefer 170) so just using one Hydra 52 HD over it.

If nobody takes this, I'm just going to get a 4 foot frag tank and start growing all sorts of SPS in it. This light can grow anything.

I have a 48x30x12 frag tank if you decide to start one.

Is it acrylic? Drilled for a sump? I'll reach out if I end up doing something

I already have a spare Tunze ATO, a spare 40g breeder tank (for a sump?). Just need a skimmer, pumps, and I'm set.

Acrylic, nice thick 3/4” acrylic, internal OF box.
