sure i read some bad feedback about these somewhere before, but are they TERRIBLE!! or will they do?? i dont plan on keeping demanding corals or anything...just want the brightness for the fish. are they THAT bad? or is it just bad compared to an arcadia. which is currently a 3ft one over my 5 ft tank.

I have no knowledge about the brand. I know Niko and others have warned about a few of the "too good to be true" deals on the eBay lights. I don't remember which ones specifically but they were apparently some of the ones that there have been reports of fires around. I'd wait to order that unit until someone with some knowledge of it speaks up because it too looks like a too good to be true price.

well, there i was thinkin the lights just wudnt be as bright as they describe, fires however, thats another matter!! please somebody let me know

 

[im_a_tidyman]

what are my lighting options, i want it bright but i cant afford arcadia, where else in the UK can i get lights?

I would PM Niko,he has much more knowledge with the Euro lighting systems.It sounds like a good deal,but you never know with some products.

He might not be able to answer right away, I think he is still on vacation. I'd also try PMing CatPicklesDog. She lives in the UK as well.
