    Hey Zoanthids nice... zoanthids! :) So I read in your other post that you are going to buy legs for this to fit your cube? Where did you buy it? I am finding that everyone is out of stock when doing a search for both the Orbit 24" and Sunpod 20". :confused:

    It's looking sweet! And the perfect lighting option for a carpenter. ;)

    Congrats n the light! I just got my new light for my 150. Went from T5's to 3x150w 10k halides with t5 actnics. WOW! what a difference! Don't know why I went with T5's to begin with! Score for us both!
