metrokat Posted February 22, 2017 Author Share Posted February 22, 2017 Sent Markalot a message and Benny is probably out flying his drone, Dave texted me back something about a steak when I asked about a light I'm looking to add a strip to my ATI - certainly one on the back of the light but possibly one on the front as well. Looks like BML stopped making the strips for aquariums, perhaps I can find a used one somewhere. But any other suggestions for a strip light that can be mounted to the ATI? 1 Quote Link to comment
StinkyBunny Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Just an FYI, Kat doesn't do steak, not even one of my pull apart with a fork ribeyes. I'll bring your stuff with me Sunday. 1 Quote Link to comment

Yea, not sure you have any good options. I only have one 3 channel controllable 36" BML strip and it's the one I want to keep, the others are old style dimmable and you're stuck with the color it produces, which is not good IMO. My 72" strip is controllable and I run it over the 150 to provide extra blue. How about a single T5HO strip? https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=sunblaster+t5ho Ballast is crap, I think Ben told me this, but I'm sue it would work. 1 Quote Link to comment

Mariaface Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 I LOVE the turbulence on the surface. Love it. A+ I also feel like I need to sit in front of this tank and stare for a few hours?! It's amazing. 3 Quote Link to comment
