Aquatic Life’s new HID light fixtures

Posted September 9th, 2008 by Ryan

Aquatic Life finally got around to releasing their new HID fixtures. The fixtures have a host of features:

Anodized gloss and matte finish provide visual appeal and years of life.
Timer controls HID Lamps, T5 HO Fluorescent Lamps and Lunar LED’s independently.
LED Housings that pivot 40 degrees allowing the Lunar light to be directed over specific areas of the aquarium.
Includes adjustable width Aquarium Frame Mounts and Suspension Hardware for multiple lighting options.
Internal electronic ballasts designed to cool without fans for quiet operation.
Special aluminum housings used to dissipate heat away from the fixture.

No we have no ideas on pricing, but we do know these will be made available through your local online retailer in the coming months.

I was at SuperZoo this past week and spoke with David, the lead designer for Aqutic Life, for quite a while. I do have specific pricing on each unit, and they are very competitive with any other light you’d find on the market. Also, he told me that they will not be selling to online distributors or national chains. They are only dealing with independant retailers right now. Also this past week, they unveiled a new RO/DI unit that is very nice, as well as a line of digital controllers.
