Titans T5 retrofit

[acidjazz]

Decided to do a review on Titans T5 retrofit (made in germany) as the results are excellent and probably the smallest footprint retrofit.

Both sets of my Titans t5 retrofit are supported by AQUAZ tubes.

Reflectors are also from AQUAZ.

Overall, what i like most about the Titans T5 retrofit is the small footprint which allows me to squeeze it in together with my DE 250watt MH.

I understand some reefers experience difficulty fitting in T5 lightings to supplement the existing MH. However, due to the smaller footprint of Titans T5 retrofit, i am able to put it side by side with the 250watt MH.

My tubes are all from AQUQZ as the results are excellent and i have no intention to switch to any other brand of T5 tubes.

Benefits of Titans T5 retrofit:

smaller footprint

tubes are easily replaceable from AQUAZ

water proof end caps

Wide light spread

check it out before you say that is the only affordable.

Invested into a german tube, you wont regret.

BTW I DO NOT SUPPORT PARTICULAR BRAND but maybe do oppose insecured brand epecially when lighting is concern.

Titans retrofit is from Germany and Aquaz is responsible for bringing them in. Its not a diy set by local diy guru, instead its a german retrofit with smaller footprint. Only Aquaz tubes and Aquaz reflectors are used for the retrofit.

Price can pm Aquaz directly.

i like the v shape config of the endcaps and body. saves space and minimize blockage of light from the MH.

great product you've got, acidJazz

bro, you are absolutely right. The design is very sleek.

Bro, Titans only have the two tubes model. If you are looking at 4x39watt, prob have to get two sets.

hmm what are the dimensions like ?

sorry bro, i dun have the exact dimensions.

my apologies. The end cap is the v-shape type, which means the overall dimension wld be smaller than most other retrofits.

Very satisfied with this retrofit. Initially i had space constrait bcuz the width of my tank is only two feet, therefore putting a retrofit side by side with a MH might be an issue. However, the small footprint allow me to place it nicely as a supplement to my MH.

Btw those who wanna see it first hand, can arrange to view at my place.
