schgr.cube Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 Man, T5 fixtures really don't go for much these days, do they? Looking for $100 shipped for this, will grab photos later. Everything does work, but the bulbs aren't great so I don't feel like shipping with those. Prefer local pickup in central Maryland if possible. Link to comment
ifarmer Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 yeah people dont buy T5 fixtures these days. the people that are using them now (T5), i am sure they are thinking to go LED in my opinion. Link to comment
NoOneLikesADryTang Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 I love T5’s, but they don’t really make a ton of sense on smaller (nano) tanks. Link to comment

I always enjoyed hybrids, as there is just something about supplemental T5 that works so well, and I kept this with the plans to modify it. But my next tank is going to need a larger light, so I figured I'd just get rid of it. Link to comment

Reefkid88 Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Now is that the area where the bulbs are or outside to outside of the fixture since these Tek's flare out ? Link to comment

That is at the widest point, outside to outside. Do you need me to measure a different area? Link to comment
Reefkid88 Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 In the picture,the blue lines. That area where the reflectors are. So I can make sure the bulbs will be over the tank and not outside of the tank. Link to comment
ifarmer Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 looks like the light is in a great shape. Link to comment
