t-5 nano lamp

Does any one know where i can find a t-5 nano light fixture for a 12 gallon?????????

i dont really think there is one to be honest. At least i've never seen one. But the best i can say is check drsfostersmith.com, maybe hellolights.com..

there is an 8 watt and a 6 watt t5 bulb that they make, but i dont think they are HO bulbs. maybe if you got like 10 of them with a parabolic reflector or somthing it would work. do a search on google for 8 watt t5 bulb.

ya thats what i mean tho...they're not the HO ones that we use, so really they wouldnt do a whole lot at all imo...maybe they would on like a 3 gallon tank, but for 12...imo you'd be better off just getting some PC lights.

thanks for the reply sounds like i will just get pc 2-24 watt lamps but i have t-5's over my 45 gal and really love them. they need to make t-5 ho nano lights that would be great.

 

[sir_dudeguy]

that would be great if they made that i'd buy it thats for sure.

but imo, i'd go with like 65w lights if you can swing it...48w isnt really that much, so if you can, go for 65 at least.

do you have any suggestions on where to find a nano lights and I could prob swing something better but I want it to look nice and fit the tank
