We will look into hanging brakets once launched but in experience the offerings available from home DIY stores are more flexible and cheaper and for us to go in to bulk production normally out weighs the logisitcs of such an operation, BUT I will look into it

These are still in manufacture so have not been in reefers hands as yet, but Progressive reef will be receiving the first sample and show casing it.

Naturally being German designed and built and ALL parts of the same area (not chenises parts put together in Germany) these will come with a quality with no compromise.

Does this fixture come with a splash guard?

Determine splash guard, if you mean safety glass from tubes then yes as per any decent lamp, I would NEVER buy one without.

Yes, I mean a sheet of glass or acrylic to protect the lamps/reflectors. The old Fauna Marin Ultra Solaris didn't have anything to protect the reflectors from salt spray and the reflectors were quickly pitted, stained, and damaged - this was one of the biggest complaints about the unit. I assume Fauna Marin recognizes this and made the necessary changes.

Still eagerly waiting to find out about a release date and price (yes I realize it's only been a day but I'm like a kid at Christmas right now)

Does that mean these are discontinued?
