This is a discontinued fixture from ATI. They no longer make a 10 bulb fixture very hard to find. Great for deep tanks such as cubes or frag systems. The fixture has about 3 years of use on it. The fixture is in perfect working condition, fans + ballasts etc.. The bulbs are 3 months old, and I have a stack of 17 addition used and a couple new/lightly used 36" bulbs that come with it. Choose whatever spectrum that you prefer. PRICE IS $400 FIRM! Not interested in lower offers. This is a steal of a price. Pick up 11694 or meet in Brooklyn/Queens.



Below is a pic of it running over my tank last summer (I currently have it stored, not running). Reefbrites not included

Nice light - crazy they stopped making a 10 bulb. If I didn't just pick up an 8 bulb for the cube I would have grabbed this for sure.

Yup, It was very hard to locate this light.

Yikes, did you go radion over that beautiful cube?

I did, 2xG4 pros, but I'm back to my old school 400w radium. Nothing tops the 400w Radium IME. The G4's are excellent though, corals grew and had nice color, the tank just lack the bright appearance + perfect spectrum of the halide. I built the dimension of a cube around a single halide so it is fairly efficient, even with a halide.

The 10 Bulb ATI is still for sale. Usually I hang on to lighting this rare, but I am upgrading to a much larger system next year and wont need a 36" fixture. When my SPS tank was densely grown out I needed this t5 fixture to eliminate all the shadowing. With 10 bulbs over a 32x32 cube there was COMPLETE coverage lol.


I have all kind of extra bulbs with this light, all fans working, light is in perfect working order. 2 Channels 8 bulb, 2 bulb.

Ah yes, I understand your switch. I went from a 250w Radium to an 8 bulb ATI over my 93 cube. ATI giving me more growth than the Radium, but I do believe the Radium was brighter. Haven't tried LEDs over main tank, except for supplementation.

Does my 93 look somewhat familiar? :scratch: Over the years, your tank shots have been an inspiration.

Your tank looks awesome!
