But a aquabee 5000 is 5000 lt/hr, comparing it with a 2400lt/hr or 3400 lt/hr pump in terms of price is

Very good review, hope to get some more updates.

The differentiation between good and bad T5 tubes are not the PAR they give out when you fire them. Most tubes will probably give similar illumination/intensity during the FIRST HOURS OF FIRING. The true differenting factor is how long can they maintain the illumination/intensity. Aquaz T5 might have been demonstrated to promote growth for a period of time. The key question is how long can the tube sustain the growth. My personal experience is that I find that the Aquaz tube don't last very long (not longer than 3 months) and it seems that I am not the only person who has similar experience. I don't agree that it is more economical to use Aquaz tubes even though they are 1/3 the price of the others. I will have to change the tubes every 3 months and the price will be comparable, not to mention the trouble I have to go through changing the tubes. I also don't agree that all cars can reach point B. I don't think I can rely on candle light to grow SPS, can I? And as for the comment on colouration and asking the corals about what they prefer is ridiculous. It is like asking: does the sun prefers to rise from the east. Zhuang Zi has already pointed out centuries ago that this is a ridiculous comment and an endless argument. We should not waste time on it.

Just go get one at $99 with free media some more. What more do you want?

Why don't you get the solite set from AM or Irwana (Not sure if any other LFS carry them)? The price is pretty decent and the performance is acceptable.

I thought these tubes are not available in the market anymore? As previously claimed by one of the sponsors? Guess another sales gimmick...

Wow it is getting interesting here. Maybe i share abit on my part regarding the charts. I posted my queries on the differences earlier, but it was also deleted. Thereafter i recieved a pm from Mr DE saying he will check with the distributor and get back to me. This is the respond thru PMl.......so much about responsible Sole Distributor. QUOTE QUOTE by Mr DE Hi Bro, Pls call the manufacture and ask if there are the ones that supply me with the chart. Cause they are the only company that are distributing this tubes world wide. DE Lightings are the sole distributor of this Aqua Science tubes in Singapore and who can we plot the chart ourself? Why dont u call me to clarify... QUOTE by me Ok but i think your reason of deleting the post is still not valid...i've compared the chart of the manufacturer and the chart by your supplier. The red and green spectrum shown has 20% difference in the intensity. This is exactly the selling point you are highlighting. I'm very disturbed by it, because you are providing false information to boost your sales. Hope you can give me a satisfactory answer and not try to brush it off with the supllier thingy. QUOTE by Mr DEIts not so good to tell everyone the source from when i get it from . Yes, i get from them and this is what they supply me with. its a good tubes. call me to discuss if necessary 97525051 QUOTE QUOTE by Mr DE let me check and get back to you on the spectra. in the meantime, i will delete your post in my sponsor forum. Cheers By me Sure, pls do it by this weekend for i need to deciding on which tube to buy. Anyway, don't understand why you need to delete my post.!!??? By me You are the sole distributor and you are the one earning the dollar. Do you think I should be the one doing all this verification when you are as you claim, the sole distributor for Aqua Science tubes in Singapore? As a sole distributor, I should be expecting better service than this. You did post the charts in your website, you have to be responsible for the information you provided. You mean you never verify the information provided? If something goes wrong with the tubes, do reefers call the manufacturer to check on the problem or you, as a sole distributor should be answerable?? You are not answering my simple question…….'Why is there a discrepancy in the charts?' Simple as that. I'll have to discuss this in the 'product and equipment' forum if you are not going to answer my simple question…. And I wouldn't be calling you, because there is a paper trail for the pm correspondence. Awaiting you answer…

ME is definately my only choice!

I bought those big bags of dried seaweed from the dried goods store. Took me eons to finish 1 bag.

How you know BH got hairy chest???

Of course the "ideal" situation is that people actually believe some of the crap that you posted. Unfortunately some actually do. For someone who silently witnessing for only 1 month plus, you sure do know a lot. Do you think we are stupid?

So easy to quit meh? I tried to stop reefing for about a year, but made the mistake of going into a Marine LFS. After that there is no turning back. But I don't recall declaring me quitting reefing. Mmmm.

Wah, 75% of the lot. From the pic alone can see about 32 rics, so the guy took at least 24 rics. At $25 each, the lot will cost $600! Seem like we are going to have some one trimming his ric garden soon...

No lah, not him. The gatherings must be successful in order to recuit disciples mah. Otherwise how to recruit?

That's a good way to win. How come I never thought about this...
