reflectors

[allan]

Anyone have any t5 reflectors?

My current setup has ten of them that I picked up from AD at 59 a pop, excellent stuff... but as my wallet has successfully weaned itself from a ready source of cash I've been relegated to flea markets and the good will of the peeps here on MAAST.

I had thought of buying some of those solar tubes, 32 bones a pop, probably would need two to encase the inside of the canopy.

Had thought of doing a MH... but I haven't had much finding one.

Pollys is up at new brunsfel, right? If so I'll give them a call here in a moment.

Polly's is in Universal City. There's one in New Braunfels too but you don't have to drive there (unless you want to). They can transfer stuff from one store to the other for you :)
If you do drive to Polly's in New Braunfels check out the Acans the NB Polly's usually has really good deals on mini acan colonies...

I'll give them a call. Not even sure where universal city is.

^if you don't want to spend money put those race horse blinders on so you don't look at the acans. Stay clear away from the corals dude. Just looking out for you.

It's like vegas, leave the card at home and only bring in what you plan to spend.

Rob, I really wish that wasn't a problem.. and it shouldn't be. I quite litterally don't have any more room in my tank.

That ora red planet is looking redder by the day and sending up multiple tuby things... and that chalice (?) on the acrylic plug? It's spread out over the entire plug and is reaching past it as well. I think Kevin has the right idea with the eight foot tank.

if I where you Allan I would take it slow and buy good equipment, what I've learned is it will eventually come back to bite you and you end buying it any way. I have finally replaced all my MAAST second/fourth hand stuff with brand new equipment and no more worries on stuff letting me
down.

I hear you chris. I did with my current tank, this is just a frag tank.

Can't afford new on any timescale for a superfluous tank. It's the primary reason I'm linking with the current tank rather than setting up a completely new setup.

Allan, check out this website... www.fishneedit.com (http://www.fishneedit.com)
They have some great looking lights and now they have a 48" 4 bulb T5 set up for 139.99 and that includes bulbs!!!!

OoPs...also their systems are able to be peiced together. You can buy t5s now and add halides later...good for those of us on a budget.
