Have you thought about DIYs?
A lot more room for customization and upgrades if needed.

Thanks a bunch is it possible you could http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/im...milies/uzi.gif a link or two my way? I like the diy aspect of it yes. I have to make a top to encase all the stuff sticking out the top and what not so it would be nice to be able to work around that. And definitely a good price. Thanks again.

Thanks for the help. I'm looking at Rapid Led 24 solderless LED kit dimmable. I was wondering what sort of color configuration i should get. I have heard that the spectrum isnt that great with this unit tho. Being that they only have cool white, warm white?, and royal blue. Any other ideas for fixtures? The thing is it has to fit into an eight inch high by nine inch wide by 30 inches long overhead cover for the aquarium.
