ESU Coralife Digital Thermometer item #232 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this for accuracy but it isn't really. I went online and found a ton of blogs where people were going off on this thermometer. Basically everyone was saying how it was always showing a cooler temp than the tank actually was. Everyone was "cooking" their fish and or plants because they kept turning up their heaters to compensate. Be careful. I bought four different mercury thermometers to test this out. They all read warmer temperatures than the digital one was showing.
All the blogs I found started from around 3 to 4 years ago to present. I guess the company hasn't quite got the quality control corrected yet. Some people's digital thermometers were way more off than mine. Some people said they bought several more and kept getting incorrect readings.
Mine always showed 2 degrees cooler than was the actual temperature. Be careful. Be warned.

T5 Actinic Aqualight Aquarium Light, 14W 24" Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The biggest thing I want to point out is that the picture is very misleading. The picture shows individual switches for bulbs, for this particular fixture does not have, please be aware.
+ The price is amazing for this great fixture including two bulbs
+ Very slim and sleek, much smaller than the picture and about an inch tall and two inches wide
+ It comes with both bulbs!
+ Runs very cool
+ Name brand
+ Extensions are nice for an open top setup
- Only has one switch for the entire fixture
- Acrylic instead of glass lens, which falls out easily
- Extensions fall out easily with nothing to hold them in, but are easily removed
I have not used this over coral yet, it is sitting atop a spare 20 gal that I should have set up soon, updates pending. This is an excellent light I would recommend for any shallow reef or FOWLR tank setup.
