You need 50 post so that you can buy from this site, not hard to do just cruise around different forums and answer some questions or start a thread to get some help. By then a Spectra might bop up.

What is everyone running for T5's in their Spectra units? I have a 24" and it's time to replace the bulbs.

For current owners how much do you think a Giesemann Infinity 24" with 4 T5's is worth? Most of local reefers in DFW are using LED's and say it's worth nothing which I find hard to believe as I paid $1200 with ballasts and bulbs. Just wondering what I should list for.

I paid 350.00 for my 72" Spectra, but it is priceless to me.

I think this depends on the age of the fixture, bulbs, and ballasts.

I've seen the 24" for sale for 800.00.
650.00 was my buy price when I was looking none popped up so I bought new got tired of waiting.
The Spectra was a purchase I defiantly have no regrets buying. Only wish it had some Built in timers IMO that's all it's missing. I don't run a controller so I miss the control of the lights I'm gonna end up buying a controller to turn the lights on and off kinda sucks.

I really like these fixtures. I thought i had great colors with my tek 6 bulb t5's, i saw a tank lit with mh and i humbled myself really quick ...MH+ t5's is the lights' KING IMO.

Thing is im moving and have an 80 gal shallow 48"/24"/16" tall. Would a giesmann 2x250w+4xt5's hung high fry my corals?

Im on board with Giesmann...sweet fixtures!

Not at all just adjust you height and start out with maybe 3 hours of MH. I have received frags from other member and have exposed them to my (3) 250w (4) T5 80W Giesemann setup and they have not bleached but colored up.

Great thanks for the help. Where did you buy your fixture? Any specific site to do so?
Thanks
