![]() Prices could come down to compete with the Chinese companies. But only if they gain some synergies and reduce their costs. I don't expect this in the short term, though, and if anything might hold off further price reductions that both companies have been doing to compete with each other.

![]() Prices have to come down. With the introduction of Jebao and Evergrow, if prices remain high demand will start to lower. I initially bought radions for my first tank and went with Evergrow for my frag tank. The prices just couldn't be beat.

![]() The press release calls it a "merger", not a "buy out". The press release describes keeping each company separate though. I think there is something they aren't telling us. The only benefit I can see to this is more buying power for components, and thus maybe increasing margins. It doesn't really make sense to me...

![]() Companies merge all the time. Generally it's a cooperative joining to enjoy the perks of being a much larger entity and can give their share prices a boost. In this case I think they are both privately owned so it's probably just a way they can stay in business without competing with each other.
Now if Aqua-Illumination would just answer my support request...
