    Costly, but makes for some great effects. I really like it.

    ...Not really sure why people commented on the video(on Youtube) saying it was "stressful on fish".

    Didn't look like it stressed those particular fish at all, however, I don't see the advantage since the fish seemed to pay no attention to it. Just a lightshow for the tank viewers I guess. With no "rain" hitting the surface to stir up food, etc., I don't see the benefit to the tank inhabitants.

    I bet they are use to it.... he developed it on his own tank so I'm sure they've all experienced hours and hours of that.

    All It's missing is an electrical arc hitting the water for that natural feel. Lol.

    Are they claiming there are benefits? That this is for more than human entertainment? Please tell me they are not!

    It would be pretty cool if you could make it rain. It would have to be a small cycle of SW from the tank though or else it would screw up the salinity level.
