SRC Member JustinK Posted April 20, 2004 SRC Member Share Posted April 20, 2004 Nat*re Aquarium is at balestier area, you may wanna give them a call to ask. I got my old PL set from them. And btw, if you are settled on keeping clams, and other high light requirement corals under PL lighting, do remember to place them higher up on your tank. The intensity of PL is weak and will not reach the bottom of your tank well. Thats the reason why i changed my lighting, my clams suffered under my PLs. But if you place it higher up, should be better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted April 20, 2004 Author Share Posted April 20, 2004 okok..... around $120... for 1 set of 2 x 55W PL lights.... hmmm wonder if its e-ballast........ anyway...... lets say if i dun keep clams or SPS, means i keep LPS, anemones, mushrooms...... would 2 sets of 2 x 20W T5s from dyamx be enough?? but if spoil how?? think that way produce much lesser heat then 2 x 55W PL lights...

SRC Member tineng Posted April 20, 2004 SRC Member Share Posted April 20, 2004 2 feet, 1 light cost $35 the new PL 55w T4 are very slim and cheap at 24-28 dollars....can probably stick 4 of those on top of a 2 footer.... if you have a 2 ft cube, it think can stick 6!!!

SRC Member tineng Posted April 21, 2004 SRC Member Share Posted April 21, 2004 hi tineng.... u know where can get the T4 PLs?? and does it come in 1 set of 2 x 55W?? and how much?? I think a lot of lfs has it...but have not seen a 2x55 for 2ft lights, so you might need to ask around. For me because tis cheap enough, i just buy 2. because the t4 are thin, i think it will be possible for stuff them into a fat 2 feet caseing..... Any, i brought my for 27...although can probably get it for 24.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
