I have the four that came with my fixture, I am awaiting my new bulbs and dont plan on using these. Never been on a full day, tank is still being set up so this fixture was turned on once to admire it then quickly turned off....

they are 24" aquatic life t5ho bulbs...

2 dual actinic
1 10K day light
1 purple

asking $10 a piece...GONE!

This fixture was just scooped up last week and a few can vouch for that, like I said this bulbs dont even have but a minute on them......

Have some hose that I didn't use, bought it from home depot and ended up not using it......

I believe it's a 1" id braided hose, I am unsure but can check. 7 or 8 feet long..... I will check tomorrow if anyone is interested......

The strips were my only lighting besides one actinic panorama pro in my 24 gallon aquapod.

TO clear up some confusion

These are the Panorama strips, not the pros but the older strips.

I was running these 2 on my sons aquapod along with a panorama pro (magenta/blue)

I was running them for awhile and was getting growth from all my corals, even had a RBTA in there, that somewhat hid from the light.

this is with the magenta and blue off, just the 2 strips on

this is one of the strips, I had it curing some live rock while my frag tank was being set up

If i could get these to fit my frag tank, I would keep them but they dont fit with the fixture I have on there....... I am selling to buy some stunners, which I dont really care for compared the panoramas but they will fit and will add that shimmer and color pop I am missing with just T5s.

Just your common blue damsel.....

He would glow under LEDs...

Where are you going to get your stunner strips from? I would like to try some out on my 38.

Louis at elegant. They are ordering tomorrow if you want to get in....

To be honest, the stunners are not great for primary lighting.... The panoramas are better...

Only reason I am sticking to exoxotic is cause of the stunners slim size, my 4 bulb t5 fixture hogs up all the space or else I would stick a panorama on there.....

I have 3 of the blue panorama pros on my 110, but I thinking of selling them as well..... For another type of led strip lighting... The evolution line use bridge flux leds( I think they are called) and you can up grade to the 3 watt LEDs.... The stunners and panoramas are pretty but not as powerful as the 3 watt LEDs...

How many of the blue pros would it take to light a 36" wide 14" tall tank?

Will it be the only actinic lighting? If so 2 for sure.....

If you only want them for the shimmer and color pop, then 1 properly placed one will do...

Have u ever seen the 3 on my 110? I don't remember if I ever turned them on by themselves to show you....... But I have 3 on my 60" tank and it's a good spread. My tanks a little too deep for them to be real effective I'm sure.... I will know whenever I get to use the par meter from Louis. But the color pop off the colors is crazy....

Thats why I am missing it on my frag tank, I know I don't need it, it's just a frag tank..... But the corals looks so much better with LEDs....

Thats exactly what I am looking for, lmk if you decide to sell one. They looked awesome when you hit em last time. I'm sure my kryptonite candy canes and fungia plate would light up crazy with those!
