This unit is brand new and never been out of the box. It is 48 in long and 11 in wide. It is made by Catalina. I can post pics later if needed. I am only wanting serious buyers. I am asking $225 plus shipping. This is only the unit no bulbs.

sorry I have been down at the lake for the weekend that is why I have not responded, but I am in Belleville, IL. Would like to get 225$ for it. The unit has never even been used or had a bulb in it. I will take pics when I get home at around 3:30. I would love not to ship but the shipping will be around 45-50$. I paid 350$ total for this light.

I only have 3 atinic bulbs but I could throw those in to save you about 60$ on bulbs. Those r the only bulbs that I have and they were used for about 2 weeks b4 I got more white bulbs. I would suggest getting 4 6500k bulbs and another atinic. That is what I am running and it looks the best not to white or blue but its all in preference as to what color you want the tank to be. You will not need anything else besides 5 more bulbs to get it running it. There are 4 ballast built in, so once you have your bulbs its ready to go.
Thank you
Anthony

C42480 I leave for a cruise tommarow so I will either need to ship it out tommarow or it will have to wait until aug 5 when I get back.

I can wait to the fifth. I have one more question. does each bulb have its own reflector? I keep finding out little things about the t5's to ask about.
Thanks Chuck

Yes each bulb has its own reflector. I have this same light on my 55 gal and love it. The light is really strong yet my light sits about 6 in off the water and i have never had heat issues. You will have to build a stand for it. I hung it from the wood box that you can see in the 3rd pic. The only thing that I have heard is that the Catalina bulbs are not the best but I think they look great if you would like to see a pic of my tank I will put one up it has the same light fixture running.

my best price would be 225 plus shipping. I paid 350 for it plus shipping. This is the best deal I can give. It has never been used before.
