just bought a t5 from aqua trader any one ever work with them let me no i will see when it shows up wish me luck lol
It took five days to get to me on ups ground. I would actually track it every night I came home from work. Of course I always ordered mine on Friday late at night so would be processed on Monday I would get it on Thursday. So I guess thats four days huh. :grumble: I hope it all goes well for you. I have been happy with what I have bought and you cant beat the price. As far as a big supporter of them well I was just as terrified of trying them as everyone else. I just couldnt afford to lay out the cash that everyone else is. My mind was made up when I was thinking that maybe I couldnt afford this hobby but I just love it so much. So I took a shot in the dark. My choices where drain the tank or go with less money. I am so glad that I didnt just drain the tank and store it. :Djust bought a t5 from aqua trader any one ever work with them let me no i will see when it shows up wish me luck lol
I had purchase a brand new 48" 2 x250W HQI w/T5 HO they call.
For the price, what you get is what you pay for. When arrived the so-called T5 HO bulbs would not stay on, a loose wire.
The ballast were not true 250W and the bulbs were a 15K. I had spend an additional $300 for a Dual Electronic Ballast by Coralavue and 14K Phoenix HQI bulbs. Would not recommend.
It was a Brand new in the box fixture I had purchase from Aqua Trader. Yes the brand was an Odyssea.Is this a light by Oddyssea that your are talking about or another "Cheaper" MH system that you got?
