18 inch T-5 HO retro kits

18 inch T-5 HO retro kits, are there any good ones out there?

Dimmable would be nice, but not a must.

18" no... Is that a typo?

 

[Reefing Madness]

Hmm, yea, nothing in the 18" range, my bad. Unable to find anything in the 18" range

Same here. The bulbs are available in limited selection, so I figured there must be a fixture, but maybe not...

18" no... Is that a typo?

No typo. I am looking at a 10 gallon nano, and the tank is 20", but I like a canopy, so the 20" lights would be just a tad big to fit. 18" lights would be perfext if they were available....

Proll easier finding an LED Kit to fit that lid

there used to be 18" T5 on the market but they were coralife fixtures that only had 2 bulbs and only came in blue and white. very inexpensive, but not very powerful. Not sure they are sold anymore.

This one is 11" https://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?pcatid=23646
and this is what I was talking about: https://homesuppliesstore.com/curre...-aquarium-lighting-fixture-2x18-watt-18-inch/

probably better off with LED or a 150w MH bulb
