    Im using some cheap bulbs from Odyssea right now, but I just bought a pair of Reeflux two days ago and Im just waiting for them to arrive. I have a pair of Bluelife SPS 250w HQI DE 14K bulbs for sale if your interested and since you live in Miami, you can just pick them up and save on the shipping. Let me know.

    Well, I've heard good reviews about them, but was curious if anyone here had any exp with them. Sometimes you have to be the "ginny-pig" to discover new things. Anyways, you know how the saying goes, " no risk, no gain".


    Will do.

    The bulbs have great reviews, which is why I bought them. Log on www.marinedepot.com and read the reviews. My SPS's loved the bulbs, had great growth. I know that Tangster loves them and swears by them.

    Hopefully its not "no pain, no gain" :cheesy:

    You should be good.... That will be 10x the improvement over your odyssea bulbs. Ive read a mixed review on
    http://www.advancedaquarist.com/2007/3/review#h2

    Maybe that might bring some help.
