    That ecopico on eBay is an auction. It will shoot up closer to 100 dollars when it ends.

    Not from what i have seen. I was looking into buying one about 4mnths ago. Tons of those auctions end around $50. A member on this forum bought one for $55 off ebay. But try selling it for 65 i hope you get it so you can get your par 38! then you can get some sps in there! lol

    Would i get 60 degree optics? Reefbreeders seems to be my best option!

    it sounds like your set on the reefbreeders which is fine, but personally I think the rapid had a better blend than the reefbreeders.

    They are the same price but, the colors used are a little different. Rapid doesnt use a red, but uses a combo of neutral white/cool white to get the slight peak in red. Also, im guessing the reefbreeders is using bridglux while the rapid is using cree?

    I'd go Rapid, no questions asked.

    I honestly have no idea. The only thing I like about rapid is the look of the bulb. What is the better bulb!! AH!
