Yeah, I noticed this too; however, it is a brand new tank for them as listed on Reef Builders. I will call Finnex and find out.

Just talked to Finnex, the bulbs are custom factory ordered by Finnex for their lamps, they are indeed a 50/50 crisp blue and 7200K white. The bulbs are readily available as replacements and I was told will retail for about $10. Finnex has yet to upload this new tank and light fixture to their website.

I started the SW hobby with a 3g in my office. It is a Tom Deco Kit3. I added a heater and a mini power head to it and I could keep 1 fish and a couple of softies.

The only issue I have is the heat problem over the summer weekend, especially a l-o-n-g weekend where there is no air-conditioning in the office.

Yes, I would round these off at $55.00 even if I can get a minimum order of two. I am not sure about taxes yet but I would use my excellent customs broker. Taxes would be minimal at best if I have to pay them.
