ReefOptix III pendent ( I don't like them, PFO is a better pendent) - $100

Icecap Ballast - $129

You can probably get the whole setup a bit cheaper with free shipping from MD but I like the guys at reefgeeks for my lighting needs.

It's not the best setup but it's definately easy to setup, I am not a DIY person. Nano-reef classified section has few used retro kit sales time to time. Maybe you should watch that forum. What kind of tank do you have? JBJ should come out with clip on 150W light very soon. They are called JBJ Viper K-2, should cost around $200ish. And Current has 150W Sunpod fixture, you can get it for 20" and 24". They are around $250ish. I have 20" 150W Sunpod and I love it. I hope this help.

there are only two websites i check on my study breaks. this one and nano-reef haha. anyways, i run a jbj nc12dx at home in LA and i just bought a 29 gallon here (used to belong to jenniebutterfly). i rarely see 150W MH retrofits for sale on nano-reef but i'll keep an eye out though.

i have been following the jbj viper and current aquapod (and subsequently the sunpod). the thing is i'm used to the canopy and don't like all the light leakage. should i just forget it and go open top? i was considering the 30" 150W sunpod but since my tank is 30" long, u think it'll still fit?

ok sorry this is getting off topic...so does anyone have anything for sale?
