the odyssea light is a GREAT fixture..Once you swap out the ballast with a good one it cant be beat. I had the 48" 760w light and ran 2 coralvue ballast on it and it was great. Cost a total of $500 and was the exact same setup as the Coralife that cost $980..Its a very good light if you want to...

yep they have the killer deal going..I bought the 24" 4bulb T5Ho unit for 100bucks. They had a 48" 8bulb as well for 170..but that and the 24" sold out they still have the 48" 4bulb unit for 150

well I have the Sigma 150...It has been reviewed many times as being one of the best..You get a killer focal range, nice working distance so you dont have to get as close to living things and might spook em..HSM focus motor, non extending front..RAZOR sharp 3 limiting switches for AF when you...

Koralia nano or a 1 depends on how much flow you want..They have a nicer flow and look alot nicer as well.

Well i started late..i didnt get my license till i was 18..but i worked a whole summer busting my ass laying asphalt. I saved every dime and didnt spend any of it. I was 19-20 at the time I forget..I saved about $8000 and my dream car was a Mitsu 3000GT so in Aug of 98 I bought a 1994 3000GT SL...

I have one question..you said there is only a $10 difference between the Elite and the nova pro..I was looking at those elites and I see the 48" is like 800bucks..if its so cheap are you sure its even coming with ballast for the halides

Originally Posted by subielover Sheesh, that price is high. My lfs sells them for much much cheaper than that, under $450 for all that you have listed there. If I ever get a 40 gallon breeder going this is the route I will take. your thinking of a 36" fixture then not the 48" fixture

well..what size is the fixture 24" 36" 4 or 6 bulbs

all my previous ones I owned where my favs

my light is hanging about 4" above the water

Hello lights 48" 4bulb T5HO $150 has individual reflectors..I have the 24" and its great..they use to have the 8bulb for 180 but they are sold out The 4 bulb with some good blubs like Blue+ you will be able to keep sps i wouldnt say at the bottom of the tank but keep them little more midway up...

i would imagine you should be ok then

I doubt it..its a 110g tank..I use to have 2x250w halides on my old 75g tank and even in the summer the temp of the tank only went up like 1-2 degrees...the fixture had fans in the top and pulled the hot air out..does that light have fans in it?

as much as I like T5..I think you are going to need to use the MH since the tank is 30" deep. At that depth i would think you would need a Min of 8-10 bulbs with the T5

I bought a Jager one time and never again..that thing was a POS and didnt even work right out of the box. Took it back the next day before it boiled my tank

T5's dont generate anywhere near the heat of a MH..all my MH lights the heat was ALOT under the bulb and you wouldnt dare touch a lit bulb..my T5HO light i can touch the bulbs after a few hours being on and it doesnt even feel all that hot and the temp right under the light isnt much and at the...

Once again "the lower the number like f2.8 and you have the center of the image in focus and the outside blurry" Read your own post..This is inaccurate..I dont care what your taking pics of..a focal plane is a focal plane. It has nothing to do with the center of the image or the outer edges of...

no..it was wrong, even if meaning something else that statement is inaccurate

Originally Posted by maxalmon the lower the number like f2.8 and you have the center of the image in focus and the outside blurry That statement is just wrong. It has nothing to do with the center and outside. its a focal plane. shoot at 2.8 or f40 it doesnt matter. if you shoot at 2.8 and the...
