Thread: Smallest T5's one can buy

    Question Smallest T5's one can buy

    What is the smallest T5 lighting one could buy? I'm looking around but it seems they don't have anything that will fit nicely under the hood of a Biocube 14.

    Anyone know of any T5's that small? Am I just not searching hard enough?

    I don't want to remove my hood because my fish tend to be jumpers. I've rescued them from the back several times, those silly buggers.

    I checked Nanotuners, but they are 24'. I need something that cannot exceed 12 inches.

    I don't think they make any HO T5's at the size I want. I'm gonna probably have to bite the bullet and go for a metal halide - in which I really don't want to do because of the heat. My GOD THE HEAT! Then that'll force me to buy a chiller and I'm too poor to do all that.

    I have seen some 12" and 18" along the way, but you are severely limited in bulb choice
