Uber Quality German Aqualine Buschke 48" 2x250w DE Metal Halide Light Fixture

The Brand Name Speaks for itself!




Aqualine Buschke one of the top manufacturers and distributors of Metal Halide bulbs

Expect no less from their fixtures. I believe in the US they make AquaMedic and Ocean Light fixtures...one of the best if not top all in one lighting fixtures available here.


I had intentions of setting up a larger tank to run these bad boys, but had a mishap and lost the majority of my live stock.

I bought the unit off another reef member and never got the chance to set these up.

I really wish I could keep them, but I need the money for USF tuition next semester.

Real Deal Authentic Made in GERMANY AB (Aqualine Buschke) Metal Halide Light Fixture

Top Notch Construction, and Heavy Duty.

I'm looking to upgrade my 150w HQI's.
But I see they are 230v - how did you get them to work with 120v?
Step up transformer? Or did you run a 220v circuit?

That is up to you...you can do it either way

if you want to stay 120v then you will need a Step- Up Converter

www.voltageconverters.com sells a 500w one for $29.99
