thanks Stephane, good to see you around again. does the 23 1/4 mean that I could shoe horn them into a opening of 23 1/2" cuz that would be great.

Hey Walter/Stephane

Can you tell me how wide these fixtures are? I am curious how many can be crammed above a 12" tank...

Thanks.

Hmm, I think I'll step up to bat on the T5's too!

Placing an order once they get their 24" atinics in.

Since the original question was if anyone had tried the new T5 fixtures I will get back to that. I have had a couple running for about one month now. The daylight one is working fine, but the actinic which only runs five hours a day is shot. It barely glows anymore, so we have a serious problem.
