superico Posted August 10, 2012 Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 hello, im am setting up a roughly 120 liter tank and have a choice between 2 light hoods one is a arcadia (so very good quality) T8 80W for $250 and the other is this http://www.trademe.co.nz/pets-animals/f ... 706044.htm it is questionable in quality and there is one bit that is kind of weird *Individual power cords for each function but the T5 one is half the price any advice on which one to take would be greatly appreciated thanks superico PS: they both come with bulbs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheepsnana Posted August 10, 2012 Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 it is questionable in quality and there is one bit that is kind of weird *Individual power cords for each function This would be excellent. You can set them to different timers. bulb one: 10am-8pm, bulb two: 12pm-6pm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superico Posted August 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 true that would be a good feature Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F15hguy Posted August 11, 2012 Report Share Posted August 11, 2012 if your questioning the quality leave it alone, if it breaks you'll have to fork out for a replacement, and also its not a good idea to scrimp on electrical equipment as it can cost you in the long run Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
