Default Hagen T5 HO GLO Lighting Systems

It was very strange to walk into Petsmart and see T5 light fixtures for sale. Yet, after rubbing the eyes, it was clear that they indeed have several Hagen T5 HO GLO aquarium fixtures for sale now. Make note, you freshwater plant tank people and nano reefers, as these 2x39w T5 HO fixtures from Hagen may be the answer for your lighting needs. Especially for less than $130.

Looks really blinding to tell you the truth. I've personally seen this system and the light output is amazing.

"Zoanthid, Notice that this word contains only a single "o." A zoo is a place where animals are kept on display, whereas zo-(rhymes with toe) is a prefix meaning "animal." This is a simple point, but I can't overstate how it grates on the ears of folks who know better. My advice in any endeavor would be to know the correct pronunciations of its words; otherwise we seem less-informed than we truly are."

You know, for the price (most were around $115), the only major quibble I had was with the largest size I saw - the 4 footer - it only had only a 54w bulb. I don't understand why they didn't make it a 2x54 - they seemed to double up on the smaller sizes.
