Dymax T5s or PL lights??


Recommended Posts

Hey guys.........

was at a LFS recently and saw the new Dymax T5s for 2 ft.... 2 x 20W per set....

i was wondering......

i am using PL lights now....using currently 2 x 39W, 1 blue 1 white

would using the new Dymax T5s be brighter than my current PL lights?

:paiseh:

78W should be brighter.......

how about if i use 2 sets of the dymax T5s vs 1 set of 2 PL lights??

so it would be 2 x 2 x 20W = 80W...

would that be stronger than my current 78W??

read that the dymax T5s not that good.......so i was pretty suspicious about it......

true??

but mh very hot.. :(

if u go 2xT5 compare to 1xPL

i think you should go PL

since PL will be much cheaper in ur elect. bills and cheaper when u buy i assume..

if you want brighter lights,go 2xPL rather than 2xT5

Require good control of temperature if using mh light (usually require a chiller) . Pl light is more affortable but depending on the size of yr tank too. You can get good pl light ....

Happy Reefing
