the difference is one comes with bulbs the other don't
current nova xtreme has 8(54 wattbulbs)
tx5 aquactinic has 5(54 watt bulbs) but has individual reflectors

IMO Aquactinics. I have great coral growth

i'm going nuts waiting, i ordered a tx5 a month ago and premium aquatics said there backordered and were suppose to ship and end of october now its almost end of november and now there telling me another week or two still. I'm about ready to tell them to ship me the 48" nova xtreme.

Aquactinics

I had a nova i wasnt impressed

[d.french]

i have one on a 30 gallon and works great, might want different brand bulbs and different configuration but i have great coral growth and tons of coralline algae. I think a 5 bulb fixture with individual reflectors would be just as or brighter than a 8 bulb fixture with stand reflector, which would also be cheaper on power bill.

i have an aquactinics and I like it. First major light though but running no issues for about 5 or 6 months now

I just ordered the Sunlight supply Retro kit. I will have 8x54 watt soon.

[d.french]

well i ordered my light from premium aquatics oct 19 and now it is nov. 30 and still no lights cause aquactinic has a big back order issue and now has raised price 30 percent, kinda crazy to raise price since there so popular but can't get product out. I have never waited this long for anything online and i have bought alot of stuff online.

Don't feel bad.. I haven't seen mine yet either, but mine has not been ordered for that long. They must be on Back order.
