    I'm very interested to see how they look on your tank. I was considering adding some par38 type LED lighting to my tank to supplement the metal halaide/ power compact fixture I already have. Those orpheck lights are pricey through at $240 each and I want at least 2 or 3. Does anyone know how these compare to the smaller orpheks or the ecoxotics.

    The boost par30 with it's 7000k white LEDs will make an excellent choice for a refugium light although an expensive one. At $75 it is almost as expensive as the Orphek PR-25s per wattage........

    I am looking forward to seeing how the lights look over the tank.

    Picture will be much appreciated....

    :)
