    D-D Razor lights

    I bought 4 x 36W (or 39W can't remember to be sure) T5 razorlights 3 years ago. Excellent quality, never went wrong, and very slim so they would go under my canopy. Bulbs always seemed to feel very firm in the ballast too. I managed to get my local Maidenhead aquatics to pirce match an...

    big tank wpg t5ho now im confused

    Very nice scape and tank. My old tank was off a very similar size to yours and came with T8's. After fitting D+D T5 Razor Light Twin (2 x 39 Watt) x 4 units. Just slightly less of Tom's suggestion. :wink: Plant growth bloomed instantly. Here are a few links to some of my old scapes...

    The new Arcadia T5 Luminaire...Is it worth all them pennies?

    I hadn't seen these until this thread, but looking at them they give a very sleek look for the todays modern tank. Are they worth the money, difficult question to answer, but the bigger ones seem better value for money, for the longer tank. How about another question for you to ponder, is ADA...

    How long do you keep your T5 lights for?

    I was just wondering how long you keep your T5 lights for, before buying new ones? I was wondering if mine are for change after a year. Mine are Giesemann Powerchrome Midday 6000 and Aquaflora bulbs.

    T5 phillips lights.

    Nice try Murphy, but if T5's fitted in to T8's, everybody would be doing it. But it can't hurt to ask. :wink:

    t5 or t8

    Hi, if you offer a ruler or tape measure up to the light, you'll clearly see if it is 1" or smaller.

    Need help, and/or suggestions...

    Hello and welcome to the forum. It might be me thinking this aloud, but i'm not sure if piranhas and plants go together, but i'm sure someone will be along to answer your questions? Do you have any pics of your tank?

    39w T5's

    My tank is is roughly 6' x 2' x 2', and i run 8 x 39W t5's, so 4 would be fine for a high tech setup for yourself.

    New Tank-DIY Lights?Opinions Gratefully Accepted!

    As another option for the Aqua-medic 1000 co2 reactor, is the Aquamas reactor range from Germany, they all have the 16/22mm connection which we need. I bought mine, and have to say it is off excellent quality, and i have no problem with co2 diffusion across my tank. It also has the important...

    New Tank-DIY Lights?Opinions Gratefully Accepted!

    It seems you are setting things up just right, and i wish i had been a member before i set my tank up a year ago. I would of saved a few grand on wasted equipment and plants then. I have converting to AS amazonia myself, it is well worth the extra money, and i am not concerned about the...

    Lighting an 8'x2'x2'?

    Sanj, here is a direct link for the D+D razor twins, mounting directions are in there too. http://www.theaquariumsolution.com/?q=node/205 They each come with some little mounting bars, mine has a small bar to lock each other together, and then another bar so it rests on the lip of my tank and...

    T5 bulbs?

    Thanks Ceg, that has made things very clear. I'll change the light time to later on, so it will have one long setting going into the evening, for viewing of course. I have thought about dry ferts, i know they would be cheaper, will look into this soon. At present i have a 5000 ml bottle of...

    T5 bulbs?

    Ceg, when you say balance things. what do you mean, and also how would you guys do it. (beer anyone?) Thanks. Also what time period would be best? One long one or two short ones? Also i have noticed some of my plants have white tips around the edges, mainly glosso and bacopa. I am dosing TPN+...

    T5 bulbs?

    There D + D razor edge. As for co2, it is regulated on a ph controller (i know, i know), so co2 is umm pretty much on 24 hours. At the moment i'm running all 8 aquaflora's which is very very green. :roll:

    T5 bulbs?

    Ok, i have 8 x 39w T5's, all of them are Giesemann aquaflora (come with the units). I have ordered 4 x Giesemann Midday T5 to give a more even colour band. I was just wondering what would be the best configuration. I have 4 razor edge units, 2 joined together long ways, spanning 2 metres. So 2...

    Advice on new lights?

    Thanks George, that was how i was thinking. I'll keep all the flora lights and will invest in some midday ones too. The extra floras can be used next year as spares. Steve did his hardest so they come with some sort of plant bulb, otherwise i could off been stuck with 8 x marine bulbs lol.

    Advice on new lights?

    Fitted these today, took some work dismantling the old T8's from the canopy. Just need to trim the canopy for a really good fit, as i've rested all 4 razors across the brace bars and interlocked them. Have to say D+D equipment is very well made, and i'm very pleased with the lights too. They...

    Advice on new lights?

    Hi everyone, i'm currently looking to change 4 x 36" T8's on my tank canopy to 4 x twin T5 lights as in the link below. So i would be able to have 8 x T5 lights, but also not sure what size bulb each would take. http://www.theaquariumsolution.com/?q=node/205 The reason i'm going for these...
