Hi Guys,
I just joined to say thanks for the forum. It is really nice to see a UK forum with knowledgable members when choosing equipment.
I spent hours on here over the weekend poring over posts to help me decide what lights to buy for my 3ft tank. (Am currently running 3 x Triplus 25w T8 and love the colour but at £15 each am fed up of them burning out after 6 months)
The time and care taken in people posting pics of different lamps has helped me no end. In particular this post: http://ukaps.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t= ... olux+osram . James C you are a star!
Then last night I ordered a 3 x 24w T5 unit from a German company off of Ebay. I got it for £75 inc. p+p for the luminaire with tubes included.
Can't wait to get my hands on it! ... Then I will buy some tubes and start swapping them around.
I may even post some pics so I can contribute back into the forum
