How are these lights? Are these lights good for 50g tank? a guy is selling me 2 used ones (used for 6 months) for 170. How are the performance on these lights? Do they give good growth?

2 lamps or lamps and the reflector? if its just the lamps then to exspensive. actually, to exspensive even if its for lamps and reflectors.

it's a complete setup. ballast and everything.

price is fine. Reflectors aren"t the best but work. I'm a big fan of ice cap ballasts as they can run pretty much every bulb and have great customer service(heard this from many people).
