T5 question.

[sailfish]

Any one here ever test a 24" T-5 fixture for Par?

I need a 24" fixture with good par for a frag tank attached to my display.

I have tested currents regular fixture and only puts out 100 at the top of the water.:yuk:

I do not care how many bulbs as long as it's 9" wide or less.

Any help would be great.

Thanks Joe

This will be the top of the line T5 fixture. Its the ATI PM at 24". If you can afford a PM.. they are top tier.

About twice as wide as Joe wanted - I'm on my BB, does it have a 4bulb version?

Thanks Guys.

I have a ATI 48" fixture right now but looking for a cheaper option.

I have a baseless theory that the smaller 24" bulbs unless over driven or an ATI like fixture will not produce the par I want. I know the larger 48"bulbs will.

A little bird told me that their are some Brand New LED stips coming to a store in ATL that may do what I want. I will test them out and then let you guy know what I find out.

Thanks Joe

That little bird squawked at me last week.
