Solaris 400 W unit
J&L have just listed preorders for the 400W version of the solaris lighting. I wonder if anyone on here has a solaris 250W version and if they like it, and more importantly if they are using it on a hard coral reef tank.
At the price they're selling them for, I need some real feedback from real people. (As compared to three happy customer responses on solaris' website) Thanks folks.

I am pretty sure that Sushiman bought one of those units. I know he had a thread on here about it. Just search "Solaris" and it will come up. I haven't figured out how to post links- or I am just too lazy to figure it out.

The solaris LED system?
I have the 36" unit, and I'm very impressed with it. But I haven't started into anything demanding just yet... still a relative newb. I looked at bulb replacements, etc. and decided it would actually save me money in the long run, even at the current cost. I love the control available with this unit. Amazing. You get 'shimmer lines' similar to those MH produce as well.

When i asked J&L about this they told me that they ordered 4th shippment of these LED lights. So this way over 50 fixtures sold.
They even sold one to Italy. Personally i like it a lot and looks like these lighting fixtures are good alternative and may be getting cheeper in future.

Ruth is correct.....Sushiman has the 4 foot 250. I have seen it a few times and everything is looking good in the tank. I pretty well stocked it with frags from my tank and they seem to be growing at about the same rate and showing the same colors as they did in my system. Only thing is he is staying away from sps because he doesnt want to be bothered by water quality. He and his wife are coming to dinner tonight....maybe I can get him to post his thoughts.
