    Okay I bought a 6 bulb unit from buildyouraquarium.com.
    They are Catalina Light's....Just for the record I am pleased with the fixture even if it doesnt have a splash screen....DownSide is you have to take it off the tank at times and clean salt creep off of the bulb's and shine the reflector's a bit....The bulb's arent all that but it is all in all a good unit for the price....It is no Tek but for a small price it is the best I have found so far....It is by far better than going to Ebay and taking a shot in the dark...So for all those with a limited income this is the ticket.....with free shipping....

    The lights sound good.. I need to check into it..
    Danny do you think you can cut some 1/8 Plexiglass and make a splash screen ??

    I don't know who Paro6k is, But they should be thankful we have a WebSite like this we can come to.. Some people never grow up..

    Thanks for the info Danny..

    Later, Larry

    I think plexiglass will wipe out to much PAR value....I will leave it like this until I get a little lazier then I will worry about it....
