I will soon order the 2 PowerQuad Retrofit SmartLamp 96W (Custom Sea) and I will like to know if they are a really good value and if they can do the work for the reef?
Are there another ligths better than 2 PowerQuad Retrofit SmartLamp 96W (Custom Sea) for a 55 galon reeftank for $230?

RavenCad just bought these lights, says they are a bit dimmer than dual 175 watt MH bulbs, but look great.
The lighting will likely be fine for a variety of softies, LPS, and a few well seleted SPS. I wouldnt try clams or Acros though.
