Zach0225 Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 (edited) I’m looking for a 24” t5/MH combination but the only thing I seem to find is from eBay and have read reports of them catching fire so would like some other options anyone knows of.

DaveZ Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 I have a Giesemann Spectra that is a triple hybrid setup (2x 250w MH, 4x 54w T5s, dual 450nm LED bars) that I have been considering parting with. But it is 48”, not 24”. I think they did make a smaller version that’s 24” but since they’re like 5 years+ discontinued, to find one in general would be tough but even more to find one locally. IMO, a MH setup in a 24” would be challenging to not overload the par levels. The light would need to be really high off the water. I run the Spectra at 18” over the water to keep it balanced but man there’s an insane amount of light spill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pdxmonkeyboy Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 I have the 6 foot geisemann and it is an AMAZING light. those ebay deals shouldn't catch fire. It is just a hood and light sockets. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
