I found this link in another thread and this does look like a good deal. Has anyone ordered from aquatraders ? Their stuff is the lowest I've seen by far. Your thoughts...

Never used them, but the prices for PC bulbs looks good. What did the other thread say about them?

The general agreement was that they were cheap China made lights that work and cost half of what american lighting companies charge. I think they said that odessa was a cover name for Jebo manufacturing. Are you familiar with that name ?

Jebo sounds familiar for heaters. Dont know the quality. I havent looked lately but I think Hamilton Lights were about the same price at their site last year.

I have a 55w Jebo PC setup bought off E-bay that I use on my Fuge...I really do not like the light setup...Don't think I would purchase for my display...JMHO...

Thats definitely a Jebo job. I have two of the 55x4 setups. One is running on my bay tank but my MH have replaced the PC on the reef tank. The tanks are about 3 feet apart and the PC look SICKLY yellow up against the 13k MH. They are unbeatable for the price. I'd sell you mine for super-cheap, but I like playing with the idea of using the extra PC to suppliment my MH.

I gotten the Jebo 48" 4x55w fixtures at a better price from Aquadeal (http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQfgtpZ1QQfrppZ25QQsassZaquadealQQssPageNameZSTRKQ3aMEFSQ3aMESOI) off eBay.

Actually, I disassemble and use them for retrofits. IMHO, they give me a good bang for the buck and I have no complaints, so far.
