I was looking at ebay and came across this.

The feedback is there, the price is great. I know alot of people might say its cheep, but think of all the problems people have had with big money items too. Just wanted to know what people think. Anyone have one?

looks like the same one they have on aquatraders.com for $359. i bought a light from aquatraders a while back and have had great luck with it. its a pc light not mh but they are made by the same company. i guess worst case, if youre not happy with the bulbs, you could always change them with better ones later on....

I'm not sure if its aquatraders, but one of those "el-cheapo" type lighting fixtures is now using the same fixtures as coralife. Theyre just OEM'ing them, and selling them much cheaper.

Might be jalli..not sure.

It looks just like the $400 24" Aqualight i had by Coralife, how diffrent can they be? they are both made over seas by the lowest bidder.

The Coralife MH bulbs have gotten some bad press... Coralife in general gets bad opinions on this board (do a search). Their digital temp gauge is not accurate, etc. Personally, my Coralife timer is noisy and broken, the Coralife Luft pump i just bought stopped working properly already in a few days.. no way I'm going to ever get a Coralife lighting system (FIYAH!) All my other cheapo Ikea and HD and Target timers are still working, and even my Hagen Maxima rated at half the power of the replacement Luft is more powerful and quieter!
