Excellent!
AquaticLife T5 HO Light Link F by Ryan
Experience Level: Intermediate
Posted on 10/26/2009 from WASHINGTON, DC UNITED STATES
Comments: This is an excellent hood. And cheap! I have a 50 gal, tall tank (48") - thought I needed a larger set up, but these two T5HO bulbs are all that it needs. I have all live plants - a lot of them - and I have seen the difference already. The roseate bulb is a must - glad it comes with this. I had tiny little surviving Amazon swords at the very bottom that are now booming - this light finally reaches them. My red plants - are actually red now. This degree of light change was all that was needed. The hood lights up immediately - no flickering. It does not generate as much heat as my old one - and it offers more light. Very light, thin bulbs. The packaging was simple bubble wrap in a large box. With another small box inside with the hood. The hood is a lot thinner than I thought. This is good. You do have to take one side apart (a few screws) - slide everything out - and install the bulbs and acrylic properly, and the legs. Easy. The serial # is inside the hood! So don't reassemble it without first jotting that down for the warranty. I used to have a standard hood that sat flush on the surface of the tank, two fluorescent bulbs - AND a glass cover in between that always got full of algae. No more. Glass, by the way, blocks out the useful UV light that plants need. But I had to have it to protect the bulbs from any splash. This new hood comes with an acrylic cover - and acrylic does NOT block out the needed UV light. Great combination. It does not sit on the tank like a traditional hood- it is raised, so you have some light coming out the side of the top. To take care of that I used some simply well-ventilated materials to simply lay on the side (front of tank). Looks fine. You want the hood to be a little raised I think - safer, better ventilated (there is no fan in this hood), and looks pretty cool. I just can't believe that all this time I was using those horrible standard flourescent bulbs.
Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

48" 2x54 Watt T5 HO Light by LMB
Experience Level: Intermediate
Posted on 9/18/2009 from SPOKANE, WA UNITED STATES
Comments: This is a must have!! If you have just the stock tank top and single light that came with your aquarium this will blow you away!!! I put this on my 55 Gal fresh water aquarium and it makes the stock light look as if it were a flash light by comparison. I almost need sun glasses to look at l.o.l. and the fish need sun block. You can't go wrong with this light and now I will be able to have live plants in the tank and have them not only survive, but flurish as well.
Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.
