Questions about Odyssea Lighting

Seifer · 11/20/2009, 03:13 PM

-I had a 48" power compact light for my old 55 gallon
-this light served me extremely well even under the wooden hood that came with the tank for probably 3 years
-after about 3 years I moved and during the process lost the tank when someone came into my living room and broke it while i was away
-i left the tank there and lost my equipment too
-recently I found a 29gal 36" tank out by the dumpster of my apt complex sitting beside it as if the owners wanted someone to take it so it does not go to waste
-I took it and plan on setting up something but dont want to spend alot of money
-I remember my old Odyssea lighting and what a bargain it was at the time and was thinking about doing this again
-i have read on this forum that the 2009 models are acceptable compared to years past, well years past were acceptable to me, never had a bulb go out, never had a single problem for years
-I have scoured google and have yet been unable to find a website to order these from and prefer to avoid ebay due to my own bad experiences
-do any of ya'll know where i can find these for sale online?

Oh and if you feel very strongly against Odyssea will you please be so kind as to offer up an alternative that is cost competitive? and possibly a link to purchase?
