    I haven't but those prices seem a bit sketchy. I'd say give it a shot but I also don't want you left with a house fire. :eek:

    because they look identical to oddysea..compare those to the ones on oddysea..the pictures are just about the same if not the same.. if i had to put a frag on it, those are the same fixtures that oddysea is selling, they are the same prices with everything..

    also good brand fixtures usually will say what brand bulb it comes with..for example the current sunpods come with a hamilton 14k bulb, at least they did when they kept making them..

    regardless what fixture i had, if it were metal halide i would run nothing else but a radium, and it is t5s i would never run bulbs that werent ati...these are the two best brands of bulbs..
