Metal Halide 48" Lighthood with Leg Stands

UCanDoIt · 05/08/2006, 01:12 PM

Does anyone have experience with the MH 48" lighthood with support bracket or leg stands, not retro, hanging or pendant style? I have a 48" long acrylic tank.

What model do you consider a good brand for MH lighthood with leg stands? Is there a model where the lighthood can flip up for easy access to the tank opennings?

Anyone have experience with any of these?

The only 48" hoods with legs right now are the maristar, aqualight pro, outer orbit, and sunpod. The maristar is the best with hqi bulbs and t5 lighting. The outer orbit and aqualight are very similar with hqi bulbs and PC's. The sunpod has hqi bulbs and LED's. Unfortunately, none of them flip up. Hope this helps. Please let me know if you'd like more info on a specific hood.
