Robb in Austin Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 Maybe, depends on the reflectors. Ideally, you'd want individual ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dena Posted March 27, 2010 Author Share Posted March 27, 2010 I can make sure to get something with individual reflectors. I'd prefer to get a six bulb light to cover more front to back...I just want to make sure whatever I get will grow SPS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robb in Austin Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 See if the Nova Extreme Pro comes in that size; for a 16" tall system it would be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dena Posted March 27, 2010 Author Share Posted March 27, 2010 It comes in the right size, but most only have 4 bulbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dena Posted March 27, 2010 Author Share Posted March 27, 2010 I really like the Finnex one with the strip of LEDS down the center...hmmm...I think I may have to save my pennies for that one. Anyone ever use Finnex products? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
don duncan Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 On a nano 4 bulbs should be fine. I ran 14 on a 215 brick, so I belive 4 is enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rjohn Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 That 24-inch Finnex looks very nice but that is more than I paid for my Current 48" 4 bulb fixture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
