    So I'm super excited! My Christmas present to myself came in the mail today. I got myself a Current USA Sundial T5 4x24 watts. ;D I think this opens up new options of livestock that I can now house.

    Most people (including the wife) don't quite share my excitement so I had to find somewhere to vent. Woohoo! Whew.. ok I'm done now.

    Congrats, I'm sure your livestock will appreciate it very much. It's allways exciting to get new equipment that enhances your tank. Like a kid in a candy store, I'm the same way....

    Nice light, i wanted to get one of those, bought one on ebay and got screwed! Guy I orderd it from took money from about 200 people in the span of about 3 weeks and left them all hanging, Ebay and paypal have a huge investigation going on. First time I have ever lost on ebay, sucks it had to be on this!

    Do you recall how many transaction this guy had done and what his rating was? It is hard, but I have had to pass on a few deals that looked too good or when the seller has only sold a couple of items. Sorry you got burned on a big ticket item. If it helps you feel better, Marine and Reef.com has that light,on sale for $183 w/free shipping.

    Oh no, I won't buy from anyone who had sold less than 250 items and then they must have a 100 satisfaction rating if thats all they have sold. Don't remember his name right now but he had sold over 1000 and his rating was 98%. Guess he must have snapped or something. Funny thing is 2 others that had ordered the same light after me got them, but over 200 people got shafted.

    Congrats brother. Merry Christmas to you. I am still trying to get permission to get mine. Not going to happen for a few months I suspect.
