I own an UltraReef light from them. It's incredible! The pricing was great and the product is very high quality. I wrote a review in one of the forums. Feel free to ask any other Q's.

Its also aquariumlights on ebay which has bad feedback so they made it private.

That said I just got the 6 bulb 54 watt T5 fixture from them a week ago and I really like it. I'm only running 4 bulbs right now and it's really bright.
It does have 2 fans which I'm glad of.

The problems when it arrived was the acrylic shield was very scratched because they packed the bulb box right on it inside of the fixture.
1 out of 7 moonlights doesnt work (they told me I cant replace the bulb but are sending me some kind of new moonlight)
1 T5 bulb was broke
I phoned them and they are suppose to be sending me all these parts (I do have a tracking number its in transit).

The fixture was alot heavier and nicer than I expected but only time will tell how long it will last.

In my review I did note that one of the moonlights in my fixture had fallen in. I was able to correct that easily. My fixture was WELL packed and the bulbs were shipped in a smaller box inside the crate for the whole fixture.

I ended up finding out about them on E-Bay but I ordered from their web-site directly. Maybe there's a difference when you pay full price as opposed to Auction. I still got a great deal though.

I have an 8x39 t5 retro from them as well.. I ordered over the phone from catalina. I was very pleased with the whole transaction. Was well packaged and when I tested it 1 buld did not fire so I called and the shipped a new bulb out. I got the replacement bulb two days later totally secure from dhl. No camplaints here only praise.

i have 150 mh 2 x 96 w pc. I think its a great light for the money. MY 10k is a little yellow but easily filtered out with the 2 96w pc. Cust service very goos so far. I even bought a 1400gph pump from them that works very well.

I should have tried their skimmer/sump combo before I went out and bought my aquaC. Even though I am very happy with the AquaC im not sure how much more it skims compared to their skimmer.
