FS: New GE 54W 3000K Daylight T5 HO Fluorescent Bulb

I have a brand new GE 54W 3000K Daylight T5 HO Fluorescent bulb to sell. This bulb is the highest PAR bulb you can get for T5HO, even brighter than the GE 54W 6500K Daylight T5 HO Fluorescent bulb. I bought it to give me more Reds and Oranges to my tank and it does this exactly how it should, but I only have 3 other bulbs to offset its color and it's output is just to much. I would not recommend this bulb for a 4 bulb T5 system unless you are running atleast two ati blue plus bulbs and another actinic bulb. It is seriously bright and very yellow so you have to have blue bulbs to offset it. I got it from ReefGeek last week and it was running for maybe 5 minutes max. I'll sell it for $12. It's 12.95 + shipping from them.

btw, this would be an excellent bulb for a frag tank as well because of it's high par output.
