Looking to buy Powerheads and Lights

[krshlln300]

Setting up a frag tank to connect to my Biocube. Im looking to buy any t5 or LED fixtures that can fit a 30in aquarium and any powerheads that range about 200gph and 400gph. Any help is appreciated.

I take it you are looking for used stuff? If you don't find any good deals my friend has gotten several fixtures from Fishneedit.com and absolutely loves them and i can vouche for them as well. For the price you can't beat em

Thanks! Yes I would prefer used but I will take what I can afford.

I can also vouch for fishneedit - I picked up a 2x24" T5 fixture for my 20 gallon from them for a great price. I would just suggest replacing the bulbs with something better. I use one ATI Blue+ and one Fiji Purple in mine. I really like the colors and everything grows well - softies, LPS and even a couple SPS at the top.

I have a t5 tek light 4x54. It's more light than you need but it would work. I can sell it for $150.

Does it have any mounting legs, or acrylic lens? Also does each connection work? What spectrum combo are you using? What types of coral do you have growing in your tank with it?

no legs, no shield, and no bulbs; but hey everything works great on it. I'm using a 6x54 right now so the 4x4 tek light isn't set up and running. I took it down about 6mos. ago, and it was running for about 2years before that. It works just fine, has indivdual refectors, but no moon lights. If it's just for a frag tank though you dont need moon lights and you could put that baby right off the top of the tank for max light.

Thanks Ill think about it. It will also be covering my display tank though as they are side by side so moonlights would be needed at least on the display tank side (it is a 3 way closed loop system design with an oversized sump as filtration and a CPR HOB refuge.)
