Is anyone running the Aurora Hybrid? I'm looking at changing from AI Hydra52s to this fixture but not many reviews online about it? Have a 6 month old SPS dominated reef so just want to make sure the power and spectrum is there.
I think that fixture looks awsum. Not a fan of led but the hybrids I do like..
That is the fixture I really wanted but it was not available or in my price range at the time.
No reviews because they are all new fixtures here. Giesemann has not had a presence here for a while now.

What colour T5s were you thinking of going with?
ok doesn't that belong in the ATI owners thread! I think you got lost.![]()
No colors chosen on the ATI hybrid . it'll sit in the box if i do another build .
Dave ,
I thought it was the ATI mention that doesn't belong in this thread . :lolspin:
The 2 foot matrixx ii doesn't come in 6 or 8 bulb flavors or even the dimtec option . Chris stated the ballast will not fit properly ..
So it's a 4 bulb 2 foot unit going over a IM Fusion 40 Nano .
There are those odd screws ? on the front and back sides that may hold a reef brite . I thought the glass shield under the bulbs was some type of glass but it's some type of acrylic material. A top section on the light is glass.
I am a little confused?
You bought a ati hybrid and a matrixx?
Yea when I was doing my cube I wanted a matrixx in 8 bulb and they didn't have it. With cubes becoming so popular they will loose sales there.

Yes , that is correct ... If u have seen my build thread , can't u tell by the title .
FWIW . Its on u know where ..
I didn't get the undrilled 57 rimless . Other half was fussing over me overdoing it . As a result I chose a NUVO Fusion 40 . It will be lit by the
Matrixx ii .
I can't hang it from the vaulted ceilings .I may just use bent conduit or 80/20
Hello everyone, as most of you already know CoralVue has taken over distributorship for Giesemann in North America. We are expecting our first delivery of the Giesemann's new range of T5 lamps in two weeks. I'm looking for three T5 only users to be beta testers for the lamps. For consideration please email me at chris@coralvue.com along with the following information:
1. Brand, length and color of T5 lamps currently in use?
2. Which fixture brand are you using, or DIY?
3. Size of aquarium and type of corals?
4. Please provide a current photo of your aquarium.
Three hobbyists will be selected based on criteria that we have already developed. All we are asking is for honest feedback on the look and performance of the new range of Giesemann T5 lamps.
Thanks,
Chris Conti
