it's cheap.... you get what you pay for.
many people on here will tell you stay the hell away from oddysea, as they've started housefires from faulty wiring before... also the customer service is non existent....so if you do pay for one, hope it works otherwise you will have one hell of a time sending it back...but that being said... they are extremely cheap... and i've had one for over two years now with only one issue.... one LED component for the lunar lights burnt out...or is disconnected or something..

Check out Aquatic life - t5ho's with a timer - but LEDS are better suited for SPS in small tanks think like 8 watts per gal for sps + 15-20x gph. If you have a PAR meter think like 650-750 lux
