I don't like the price I never paid more than 100 for a strip so little
sticker shock


Join the club. I shelled out $829 for 2x250 MH & blue actinic light
strip. I found this place had the best prices and free shipping.

I'm still waiting for delivery expected on Thurs, so YMMV. They also had
decent prices for chillers, pumps, etc., so I may be a repeat customer if
this transaction goes smoothly.

Be careful of hood space. My hood only had 4.5" of space, so it limited
my choices dramatically.

Ever thought of doing the DIY lighting route if canopy is on your tank?

I`ve done it in all my tanks and went with DIYreef.com for all my parts.
Dual 250MHs and dual actinics on my 90 and spent way less than a
pre-manufactured light

I have a 29, 65 and 90 reef and did the lighting on all with DIY parts and
saved $$$ in the process. I do have canopies over all my tanks though and
that can make the difference between DIY and premade
