wasp Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 This is so beautiful I just had to link it. Also of interest, it has a DSB, and a nice little refugium, and sump, in full view underneath. It is an old thread but is updated at the end. http://zeovit.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2341 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feelers Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 Are there any MH's on that tank??? Not that I can see - t5's all the way. Awesome!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puttputt Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 I think there are 3 MH between those T5s :-? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drifty Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 I can only see 2 rows of 8 t5's but maybe I am blind. Personally liked the tank in the first photo, latest photos look too overgrown for my liking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

puttputt Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 the T5s are hanging off a MH unit, look at the 3 square reflections on the light fitting, 2 rows of T5s would never light a tank like that. Look at his web site and you'll see the light fitting before he mounted the T5s on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drifty Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 initially he had mh, but i think he now has 16 39w t5's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puttputt Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 yep, saw that in the 8/2006 file, but they are MH in the photos originally posted on the zeo site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feelers Posted August 17, 2006 Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 After you take into account power does the cost of t5 bulbs make them cheaper or more expensive than MH? For example would this guy's lighting cost more or less than yours chimera? I really like the idea of t5's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puttputt Posted August 17, 2006 Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 you also need to take the bulb life and replacement costs into the equation Feelers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
