Right on only thing I'd worry about is corals on racks. Also t5 is super super bright. Is it dimmable?
With it being so bright… would it alone be good enough without the ai primes? Just use them for ramp up time but have them go off at peak?
I need info ! Now that I’ve bought them.
They really only cost me as much as another AI prime hd lol

Same one I have. Pull the bulb and slip off the ends. I push the bulb to one end so I can get finger under it to pop out. They are tight
I’m not going to break it? It seems pretty snug!

I jumped my 194 lbs up on there and did a little jig. Solid is right. Completely overbuilt for what it is going to be as only about 50 gallons total volume will be up top. I use this somewhat as the dry run for the stand for the 180 that comes next. Planning to go three 2x6 stretchers long ways. I haven't done the math yet in a sagulator to ensure it does not need a center bracing. If one is required, I will cantilever it from the back to keep the front access wide open.
how long is the 180?

I took Ronan to the barn today. Within 10 minutes of us being there, he decided that he needed to p e e in a stall. Ahhhh, to be an almost 4 year old boy :rolleyes: ;Hilarious ;Hilarious ;Hilarious
Let's be honest... Raise your hand if you wouldn't pee in a horse stall ...
