Default Ice Cap Reef Illumination Question...

I am in the process of upgrading my 75 to a 110 and am looking to also upgrade my lighting to 4x 110wt VHO to the Ice Cap reref Illuminations (MH T-5 combo 48").I am having trouble finding many reviews on this fixture and want some feedback before i spend that much money. Has anyone had this fixture for awile and can give me feed back? Thank fellow reef people!!

Sorry, we must have missed your post/inquiry.

We have the 6 foot version on demo at the store. Had I known about your inquiry I would've invited you to come see it in action. It is a very nice unit and very well priced for what you get.

I'm glad to hear that you go a good deal. You're sure going to like it.

BTW, what part of the world is reef world in?

Cheers,

Paul

Thanks! I am excited to get it. The only bad thing is it is now overshadowed by the news today of my dog having bone cancer.
I did not want to say that I am in California. Thought you guys would boot me.

Sorry to hear about your dog

Hope his progress is as painless as possible

Anyway, I just wanted to say that Paul & Ian at O.C. were kind enough to unwrap their demo unit for me to see. It's a very impressive unit & I'm sure you'll be more than happy with it. The LED strips are very cool indeed.

It's on my list & I almost ordered a 4ft one this week but looks like I might be upgrading to a 6ft tank (Paul maybe you'll give me a great offer on your demo unit )

Oh & don't worry about being in Cali, I'm in Chilliwack and most Canreefers don't hold it against me (well not to my face at least!).
