WOW! this is a very nice piece of lighting for a very GOOD price. Noone else came close. I am using this one for a 55Gal "NEMO" tank. The quality is AWESOME. The cords ARE long enough and the ballast is vented. I am looking to get the 48" retro for my 100GAL (maybe 2of them) Talk to me Petstore...
The dual cords make timing perfect. very easy to use and set-up.

GOOD JOB, HOOAH!

the product is excellent to supplement the light of an aquarium. The delivery service is excellent for Puerto Rico. I recommend this company to buy over the Internet

The lights and retro fitting kit worked great and was easy to install, they just need to come with small fans

I am very happy with this retrofit kit. Doesn't produce too much heat under the hood, and really does add to the look of the aquascape by making it noticably brighter. The actinic blue brings out some good color. Only problem I had was that the spacers are not perfect and two of them could not be used because they would not fit on the screw.

it was really easy to install and works great but when its time to replace the bulbs it gets expensive better to just get a metal halide from the start

WOW. I have three tanks. I put the coralife 36 retrofit kit with dual 96w. on my 125g fish only with 80 lbs of live rock. Amazing setup for the price. easy install. And plenty of light with seperate plugs for easy dual timers.

I put this into a 37 gal. tank with a eclipse 3 hood. I wasn't impressed with the standard hood lighting and this is a great replacement. Takes a little trimming to get the reflector in and the pre cut cord exit was on the wrong side. Since moisture was going to be an issue, I was able to notch out the plastic cover from the old lights for the cord routing and mount the kit to the old lighting fixture and even wire in the existing switch. (Some electrical ingenuity is useful) Overall very happy with the fixture.

I placed this fixture on my freshwater planted Aquarium, and it works great, but the reflection plate is too thin, and fragile, if you're not careful it will be crushed as an aluminum foil sheet. Also I was expecting that they were square pin, not straigth pin. But,so far the lamps deliver good light spectres and give the aquuarium a new fresh-crystaline-like water look.

These lights work really well, I have the 2 bulbs on different timers so that the actinic bulbs come on an hour early and turn off later for a dawn/dusk effect. The bulbs don't get too hot either, Gives great lighting to my 75 gallon tank although im adding more lighting for corals later
