Big Als Online has them in their catalog, so I guess they'd have them in the store too.

Online price is 17.99.

Will wait for the higher wattage ones to come out but thats neat....

I'd say they would do well with 50-60 watt ones for the nano reef keeper, that would be a nice wattage over a 10 gallon tank.

I was wondering what it would be like to have 2 of these over a 10 gal nano.

Any ideas?

I don't think it will be that bright, two lights aren't twice as bright as one, 8 lights would be twice as bright, thats why I say I would rather wait till the higher wattage comes out.

If you want a good light for a 10 gallon, give me a PM I know where you can get a deal on a 400 watt MH.... (okay its a bit of overkill, but hey I bet stuff grows well)
