Jim it kinda looks like the coralife aqualight pro, but the coralife has 2 96w pc's instead of 4 65w pc's, I would e-mail him and see who makes the light first before buying it.

some people feel that no name light fixtures can be a real firehazard. there have been word that some cheap lights caught fire.
i think most people agree that the better brands of fixtures may cost more but are better and safer in the long run.
Some people buy there cheaper light sets and rewire them if they have the knowhow

ya it looks exactly like a corallife. They do make a 250w now but for that money you can get better lights than corallife. Although they have been making better equipment recently as far as their lighting i have seen some pretty nice tanks with them. Also like the FREE GIFTS!!!!!!! lol. All the bulbs come with them anyway.

I have the Coralife 150w version and it works great! Bought it used frome someone for about that price, I am satisfied.

if you run the PCs use the dual spectrum bulbs from Current. They have way better output and spectrum than the corallife bulbs.

I think im gonna go with the 250 retro 20k and sell the 4x65 pc.
Thanks for your help guys!
