    Thanks, I appreciate your comments. I called aquatic life and spoke to them about the light fixture and the salesman was a very friendly guy and very helpful. Im going to order this fixture hopefully this week and I'll be sure to post my opinion and let everyone know how the light performs.
    Also, they have a pretty neat RO/DI unit that I would like to find more info about.
    Thanks

    And it's different on RS?? IF you go there make sure you never speak your mind and/or argue with one of the 'big dogs' or you'll be blackballed and no one will help you.

    That's not intirely true and I for one like to help newbies so anytime you want just PM me and I'll help you out if i can.
    As far as the light fixture goes it's fine for your tank. 4 watts a gallon is customary for most reef tanks. Also a 75 gal tank is lower than most traditional 100 gallon + tanks. It also gives you some working room which is awesome when needed in a hurry. Some people do not take that into consideration and have to take the lights down to work on a dark tank/!$#?
