    I currently have corallife 250 pro but it seems to be dead. Coralife does not make the system and I am unable to get a replacement.They are refunding me the money. System is 3 months old. It seems that most stores online have stopped selling the 250 watt systems. Any suggestions would be helpfull. I currently have a 210 72'x24x29 aquarium.

    None of the LEDs work. Replaced 2 and still did not resolve the issue. I figure for 1000$ it should work out of the box.

    i think i misunderstood your post. did you get all the money back for the light or are you trying to fix the led's ?

    if your looking for a 3x250w fixture they still sell a 3x250w fixture but not the same one you probley have heres a link.

    you said you have a 210g tank is it the one that is 29-30"tall. if so if your going to have a reef tank i think you need 3x400. my buddy has a 300g tank and its 28"tall and 6feet long and he has 3x400w pendents on it.or you can buy from catlina aquarium i own some of there lighting and had a ballast go bad they sent me a new one. they have a 5 year warrenty they have a 3x400 check out there sight.
