Anyone know much about this light? Bout to pull the trigger on a used one for $75 and shipping. Was thinking about chopping it and doing a hybrid t5 led. Just havent really seen them so dont know the quality.

They are great lights in my opinion. Very well made. I have a 6x39w tek elite. I used it on my previous tank and now on my new tank. I have no complaints other than I feel the acrylic
Splash guard could have been designed a little better

I used a Tek 8x54 on my 90 before switching to LEDs. I saved the light and now it's going on my frag tank. Great light IMO.

That's exactly what I was going to do. My plan was to pull the 4 inner bulbs and mount the Ocean Revives I bought. The LEDs looked slightly to wide to make it happen so I didn't do it. I guess I was wrong. Do you have a link to the fixture. I might still go through with it.
