    Wow !!! What a deal!! If the light is used, remember that if any problems with algae or coral come up, it could most likely be because the bulbs have been used up!! It would almost be smart to buy a new set of bulbs before going too coral crazy !!!

    Also remember that when your looking to buy corals anywhere, see what lights they are using. If they are using LEDs, the corals color will look a lil diff in your tank.

    The light bulbs were used for only a few months, I plan on replacing them in a couple more months or right before I get some corals that demand higher lighting...

    Any yup, I was pretty happy w/the deal...
