Aquarium Dude Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 I belive that t8 lamps are 1 inch in diameter, whilst t5 are considerably smaller, probably around .5 of an inch. I would say that an aqua one tank would probably have t8, but I could be wrong :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 T8s are 8 eighths of an inch diameter, T5s are 5 eights inch diameter, T12s are 12 eights of an inch diameter...Anyone seeing a pattern? If it's skinnier than normal it's a T5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
