    I have a set of I think either 6 or 8 T5HO endcaps, reflectors, and ballasts that you could use to make a DIY fixture. No lamps, they're all too old.

    I also can build you an LED fixture but that might be a couple months out.

    How long are your T5's Turbo? Mt tank is 30 Inches Long but any within 36 Is okay because since its a weird length i am able to push it off the top o the tank to reduce heat

    Oh, yeah, the reflectors I have are 48" ones but I think the ballasts should work for 36" lamps, maybe even 24". I bought them used from Armydog and never used them, just used the lamps and now those are toast.

    I also have a couple of Nova Extreme T5HO 24" fixtures that hold 2 lamps each, one has a busted socket that needs repaired but that's easy enough.

    I also have 4x Sunlight Supply single-lamp T5HO fixture and (mediocre) reflectors for a DIY job, they are daisy chain-able. You could probably use those to get by until you could pop for the LEDs.

    Both of the above have never been used, was going to use them for scrubbers and went LED instead.

    I also have 2 Odyssea 24" 2 lamp T5HO fixtures that have been used for about a year, cleaned up nice, lamps need replacement. These have brackets on the ends that extend out to span a tank, I had them on my 37g tall.
