I am switching back to MH so up for grabs is an almost brand new Sunlight Supply Tek T5 light system (6 x 54watt). The unit is less than 6 months old and I have been very happy with it, the colors on my corals are amazing but I need a little more light par for growth. I purchased the optional cover and tank mounting brackets and have a full range of T5 bulbs with it. I was not sure of color combo so I ordered white, pink, purple, actinic etc bulbs ( all giesman). I will include all 6 of the bulb combo I have ( which are still goood for 6 months plus)plus 4 brand new bulbs as backup. I have about $600 in it with the bulbs and will let all go for $200.00 (firm)

it did come with something to use as a hanging unit but I do not remember if it has the hanging cables. I will check when I get home and send you a pm tomorrrow, if not you can pick up the hanging kit from sunlight supply online for around $20. If you use it on freshwater tank several of the bulbs I ordered
were the daylight bulbs which are designed for freshwater which I did not realize so are brand new.
 
Thank you. Please let me know if you still have the hanging cable/kit. I was originally thinking about upgrading my light to four bulb fixture (4 x 54W t5ho), using two bulb for 10 hours and using the other two for the mid-day blast (2 to 3 hours). 6 bulb fixture may be an overkill, but it will give me a better light spread. I believe that you have two ballasts/switches so that three bulbs are controlled by each ballast/switch. I am wondering if you turn off one ballast, do every other bulbs turn off or one side of the fixture will be turned off?
 
I have it over a 75 and you would not want less spread, there is already 3 inches space at front and back with the 6 lite unit. One switch controls the one bulb on front of the unit and one on the back. The other switch controls the 4 middle bulbs. I use the first switch as my morning and late evening actinics and the second switch as my main 4 daylight bulbs, works great.
