I’m starting the build conversion of my 500 gal (8’x34”x36”) acrylic tank to an sps reef. I had already purchase 5 kessil ap9x for a different project. I’m considering using my 60” 8 bulb t5ho ati sunpower fixture that’s sitting on a shelf in combination with the kessils. Led/T5 hybrids are my...
Just getting rid of the 24" T5 Hybrid mount I had been using. No longer need it since I've upgraded lights. It also comes with extra bulbs and the hanging mount kit.
$150 Plus shipping.
Hello all,
As a Christmas gift to myself, I'm going to upgrade my lighting from my Red Sea 90 LED and need some opinions.
The question is simple: What would you pick for a 24"x24" cube? Radion XR15 Pro G6, XR30 Pro G6, or a T5 Hybrid using my Red Sea 90.
Thank you in advance
I'm planning a build with a 6' tank and thinking of getting the AquaticLife T5 Hybrid fixture but it only goes up to 5' long. Would you do dual 3' with complete side to side coverage or would you do a single 5'? If you have put a T5 fixture that wasn't as wide as the tank I'd like to see it to...
I’m selling a new, never been used, 24” Giesemann Stellar T5 Hybrid Retrofit Light fixture, including ceiling mounting suspension kit. It has adjustable mounting brackets which fit most LEDs and can hold 4 T5 bulbs (bulbs & LED light not included). I don’t have the original box anymore. $270 or...
Anemone tank
Ok so I am starting a new build as I sold off my last setup and have regretted it since the guy drove away with it. But I am doing a bit of a different system this time around. So I got rid of my tank last year and have since built many freshwater tanks since then which helped me...
I moved to a new account to match my IG so I wanted to repost my build.
So this thread is about a year late but I figured I should finally give it a shot. I’m almost a year into this hobby and my obsession hasn’t slowed a bit (just ask my fiancé). It all started with an Used Innovative Marine...
So this thread is about a year late but I figured I should finally give it a shot. I’m almost a year into this hobby and my obsession hasn’t slowed a bit (just ask my fiancé). It all started with an Used Innovative Marine 20 gallon aio system. Actually, that’s a lie. It started with a month of...
48" unit and 36" unit, hanging cables included.

48" unit comes with the following bulbs;
- three Blue Plus (two are about two months old, one is less than a year)
- one Actinic (less than a year)
- three Coral Plus (one is unused, two are...
I have been wavering for months on whether this build warrants a R2R build thread but after pulling the trigger over the weekend on a pneumatically actuated salt doser setup for my mixing station, I knew that exchanging ideas and advice related to this project would be highly valuable for myself...
I have a 4x2” 80/20 arm mounted on the side of my tank to hold 4 AI Hydra 26 lights. I want to add a hybrid fixture to add T5s to the LEDs. I have 14’ ceilings and don’t want to hang the lights from the ceiling. Has anyone done anything or seen anything similar? Will the 80/20 hold the...
I just set up.my 31x31x15 tank, I broke down my JBJ AIO, I Currently have a AI Prime HD but am thinking about doing a T5 Hybrid coupled with the AI or this light. Mostly I only have softies I have a few hammers, but I want to get into SPS and clams, just whatever I want to put into Display...
Prelude: This build actually has it's origins back in July of 2018 with a decision to try out a saltwater aquarium. I have had a fair number of years keeping fresh water tanks, but really nothing too involved even there. After a lot of research, with help from members at Reef2Reef, the first...

So my current setup is a 65G tank with lighting provided by 2 AI Prime Hydras. Overall I love these lights. However, I am thinking about adding a T5 fixture. I've become convinced that LED/T5 combos are the way to go.
My dilemma is that under my hood I only have room for a one bulb T5 fixture...
So I'm currently building my Red Sea 750xxl and I'm pretty committed to running a Giesemann stellar plug in hybrid, however I'm not sure on how to size the fixture in relation to my tank since my tank is 72" long. I plan on using 4 Radion XR30 G4 Pros, but should I buy two 36" fixtures and put 2...
SOLD -
Edit: 11/18 parting out see post below from today. $650 for the T5, $225 each for the 48" Reefbrite XHO strips shipped.
Selling this setup since I came back from MACNA after being convinced to switch to Metal Halides by Tullio (Reefbrite) I bought the setup minus the LSM...
Stocking up my tank with Bta, anyone in here use CORALLAB AB+ for anemones ?
If not, can you post your Radions schedule? I'm also running hybrid with 4bulb T5 (B+,C+,B+,P+)
I have just installed a Waterbox 230.6 72'x 26'.
I was wanting an LED/T5 hybrid system that fits the full length of the tank. I have 2x AI HD 52 from my old tank and will buy another. I can only seem to find 60' length. I know that would work but I think it would look a little odd with 6'...
Is there any difference between using T5 lights vs. LED strip lights (i.e. ReefBrite XHOs or Orphek OR series lights) as supplemental lighting to an LED fixture like the Kessil AP700 or EcoTech Radions? The goals would be the usual for supplemental lighting--reduced shadowing/more even...
Please help!!! I cant decide between 2 Atlantik V4 Orphek lights or 3 gen4 pros with a coralife t5. This is going to kight an sps dominant 165gallon tank. 72wide 20 deep 26 tall. Opinions and comparisons would help out alot. I like the idea of the radions programming and the t5, I have also seen...
I’m setting up aquaticlife t5 hybrid. Will use a pair of radion XR30 (non-pro) + 4Bulb T5
Tank 36x22x22
objective: sps dominant
How to get a good spectrum?
New with hybrid?
What are some recommendation on T5 selection? What T5 combo should I use?
Thank you :)
I’m building a new tank 36”L x 22”W x 22”H. Looking to have an sps dominant tank, can anyone give some suggestion ?
Radion, hydra, t5, or hybrid? If hydra or radion, how many of them should I need
I’m thinking about Aquaticlife hybrid 36” 4 t5 + 2 hydra 26/2 xr15
