Any ever use this light?
http://www.aquatraders.com/36-inch-4...re-p/52304.htm
I was wondering if anyone has ever used it I was thinking about getting it for the 38g I'm going to set up only I want to know how many light switches it has. I would like to run the actinics longer than the 10ks.
Also if it does would there be a problem running 1 dual with 2 actinics and 1 with 2 10ks? I guess I would just be worried about even lighting?
Thanks

I realize this is a little late but don't get that light. If you want a quality T5 with all the bells and whistles try and find a Sundial fixture made by Current. They stopped making them a while back but you still see them for sale. If you can't find that, look into the Wavepoint fixtures with multiple switches and built in timers. If you want the best possible T5 fixture (minus the bells and whistles) check into the Tek (Sunlight Supply) or ATI fixtures.
SG = 1.024-6; Alkalinity 8.3-9.3 dKH; Calcium 420; Magnesium 1300; Temp = 76 to 80; pH = 7.9-8.3. Alkalinity and calcium are dependent on Mg.

I have one of the other versions thats like $25 more with the fans, that one has switches 2 switches for controlling 2 bulbs each. Like greech says though these aren't quality fixtures the reflectors junk, the included bulbs are garbage, good enough for fowlr or even some softies but you wont be having any SPS with it.
