|  Fish.com
first and foremost I would like to state that what follows is my own opinion and in no way is affiliated with 3 reef, with that being said let me give everyone a heads up about a certian website called fish.com. A month or so ago I was shopping for new lighting system, and I looked high and low and found this: Current usa outer obrit 36in 2x150/2x96 for $593.52 which had been reduced to $398.9 with only 6.00 shipping at fish.com , so I jumped on it, well about 4 days later it arrived, I was like a kid on christmas,but it was wrong, it was only 1x 150 metal halide. I called and they assured me it was pulled from inventory wrong, and the correct one would ship the following monday morning. After a week or so I called them and they told me they were out of stock and would fix this as soon as possible. Well today, a month later, I get an email, stating they dont carry the 2x 150 watt versions never have and never will, and i could just keep the one i had. I'll admit I kinda lost it, told them I was not paying $400.00 for a 1x150 watt system, and I had quite a bought some coral that was going to die. After getting rather RUDE with I, I returned the favor, and after several curse words I got them to take it back, but they still havent returned any money to me.
I will not deal with them again EVER. Just wanted to warn you guys about em.

Sorry to hear that. I got my lights from them, and I didn't have any problems at all. They even matched and beat the lowest competitor price on it, so I thought they were pretty good and had good customer service. They should fix that website error right away. I would call back and request to speak to the manager of customer service, who might be able to give you some extra reimbursement or store credit for your big inconvenience. _________  | |

Print out the page that it's on on the web site for proof and get a lawyer. This is false advertisement and bait and switch. Make sure any contact you make with them is documented, times/names/dates.... Then after let your lawyer do the talking! You have a good case, especially since they aren't correcting their mistake. _________ Got Questions? Need Answers?
