You also get a 10% discount as a reefcentral member. Enter code RC0401.

If you can swing the $$$ for halide I would splurge. I wish I had with my 24". I did with my 90"!

No worries, the legs will extend to fit your tank. If you can get it for close to the same price, I would really encorage you getting T5's instead of PC.

Angels247,

Sorry I wasn't clear. The link I sent is for the same type of set up (2X65 watts plus moonlights). The one I'm talking about is toward the bottom of the link page. It would just be cheaper (not necessarily any better).

Personally, I own the aqualight pro HQI version of the one you are looking at and I really like (very slim). I was just sending another option your way (about $30 cheaper).
