KZ T5 bulbs?

[luke33]

Just wanted to let you know I spoke with Scott last night about the fiji's. He said they were suppose to be in last week as they got them shipped air freight and payed extra for fast delivery.....that worked well! lol, anyhow, they basically don't know where there at but they could be in any day now. There shipping # isn't showing them anything, and they also have to go through customs as well.

[HBtank]

I just checked and did not see them. You sure?

I hope so

I already got faked out once..lol

 

[brianbigoats]

[Canarygirl]

they ARE in, I just got one. They're not on the website though, you have to call Captive Oceans and order them.

brianbigoats, THANK YOU for the post!!!!! Just talked to josh and got 2 ordered. can't wait to see them on the tank.

 

[HBtank]

Well mine were already ordered..no worries then..

 

[luke33]

Ordered two myself, thanks for the headsup Champ. Now i can not worry about these freakin lights and i should have mine by sat or monday since there only an hour and a half away.....still cheaper than taking my truck for a three hr ride. LOL

hi just got (2) can not wait to see how they will look,

 

[HBtank]

If you guys buy theem all before they remember to send out mine, heads will roll!

Making me all nervous. lol

 

[champscorner]

HBtank, better give em a call to make sure.

If we do get ours before you i'll make sure to post pics of mine for ya.lol

 

[champscorner]

sorry for the dp, but maye we can keep this thread going by posting pics of our tanks under these fiji's. What do you guys think???

 

[luke33]

I'm all ready to go. I have a 14k 250w MH(great del) and right now next to it I have 4x48" icecap retro's with a IC660 on them, so i'll be able to show the t5vs the MH. I also have a few other 20k radium and what not so it should be interesting. RIght now i have a super acintic, 65k, and 2x blue plus in my t5's. Its about a 14k look, almost identical to the MH'd. I'm going to mess with the bulbs when i get them, but right now i'm thinkin 2x blue plus and 2x fiji's. I'll post in a few days.

 

[champscorner]

Sounds like your set luke33. def want to see a pic of that when your ready. I'll be runnning 2x250w pheonix, 2x54w sfiligoi SA, and 2x54w fiji purples. I' also have the 4x54w current bulbs to play around with.
Will post pic in a couple days when i've found the right color.

 

[luke33]

That will be quite a look with 2x250 phoenix bulbs. I would wonder what your tank would look like with the 2x fiji's and 2x red's they sale along your 250w phoenix bulbs...... My tank is a bit of a mess right now but i'll take some pics anyhow when i get the lights.

 

[HBtank]

Will post a pic too of my new T5 combo, bulbs are ont heir way

 

[120reeferman]

were did you get these? i have 2 diff sites iv seen them on, if you guys got a hook up let me know...lol

i need the 80watters though and i have not seen them

 

[luke33]

80watters...not in existance at this point.

 

[luke33]

Well, got my bulbs today, they look great. Here's a couple pics of my tank. Bear with me folks, i have my display in hypo and all my corals and LR are in my 75g QT. So its just 150lbs of sand and some junk decorations for my fish to hide in. I'm sure the LR and corals will really pop once i can add them.....in a few more weeks. Feels like forever.

The seft side is a 250w 20k radium mh'd and the right is 2xblue plus and 2xfiji purple.

Here's just the right side with the fiji's

They look much brighter in person, not so blue. More of a violet blue. The pic doesn't give it justice, but thats all my camera would do. Just wanted to share.
