Good deal on T5/Led combo

That's still not going to do any good for individual timing. If it's one power lead and then on/off switches for the lights....there's no way to control them.

If I'm understanding you correctly, you wish to control (on/off) each bulb individually, right?
Is the issue, maybe you haven't seen the pics from my unboxing?
PM me if you care to know how I can control each pair of bulbs individually.

I think the concern is can they be controlled by a timer or do you have to manually have to flip a switch.

Of course they can.
Look at the unboxing pics then it should be clear.
Each pair of bulbs have their own power lead.

Can someone post the dimentions of the 36" 6 and 8 bulb fixture? I am trying to decide which one to get for my new build. My new tank will most likely be 20" front to back and I am afraid the 8 bulb will be to wide.

Might want to decide quick. I doubt they have many left.

The 8 bulb will probably cover the majority front to back. The 6 bulb on the 65 leaves a couple inches on each side

"CoralVue T5 Fixtures are for both standard and HO T5 lamps."

doesn't mean they are HO ballasts. sounds like he's just saying either kind of LAMP can go in them??

Sooo I am trying to buy some of these lights using Paypal but this is the response that I get from Paypal "Unable to process payment. Please contact the merchant as the shipping address provided by the merchant is invalid, and the merchant has requested that your order must be shipped to that address."

I am trying to contact Coralvue but there is no phone number or email or customer support what so ever. If anyone know their phone number can you please send it to me in a Pm so I can order these lights.

Edit: nevermind Im just going to transfer the money and use my card

Change your Paypal address to match the address Coralvue has for you, if applicable.
