I use the Sunbrite T10 tubes on my big tank --- been in place for almost two years -- and love them. Great color and I can keep SPS robustly.

On my nano in the office, I'm bringing it up with their Slimline fixture. Looks great, lots of PAR, cool features, and inexpensive too.

I tried looking for info on them a while back and couldn't really find much. You are happy with them it sounds like.

I have a 120 with stand waiting to be set up and don't want to buy MH for it. I would rather go straight to LED.....so doing some research.....

Go to SUNBRITE LIGHTING SYSTEMS INC and you'll find a lot of info. And the new Slimlines are actuall Cree LEDs. The T10 tubes have LEDs are Cree dies but manufactured by Luxeon I believe....

I am going to tag along on this post as I would like to find out more about LED's. I have PC's right now, but those were just to get me going. I am looking at 48" T-5's or LED's, just not sure about which ones I want yet.

Have ordered the Aqua Illumination Sol Super Blue fixtures. I am getting 2 of them and the controller as well as hanging kit to light my 150 cube. I will let you know when I get them if they are as cool as everyone says

Received my two AI Sol Super Blues today but the controller is backordered! What a bummer as I'm really excited about them.
