Lighting question

[DaleV87]

Ordered my light today Brookster123.
One place was gonna order it for me and then I would never have to deal with the vendor if there's an issue they would just replace it for me. Problem was it would take 2 to 4 weeks to get it when they need to place another order with them.
I just ordered it from TanksDirect and its already in the mail with free shipping. Can you say Anxious

I think that was the eco bright which is the low end of their LED's. If it wasn't I got ripped off on that. I paid $99 on sale.

Nope, it's the plant model:/. I've been tracking it's price, it's been dropping by a few bucks each week.

That figures It always works that way for me. I wait and wait then buy then everything better goes on sale. Same with the 55 tetra tank for 55 now the aqueon 55 is $55 at pet supplies plus GRRRRRRR!

The aqueon look so much better built too, i was comparing them side by side last night.. major difference. In all my tetra tanks, the silicone is lifting in the corners, which is fine as there is 5 times what is needed. Just a good spot for algae that I can't get to grrrrrr

I have a guy at work that has a 55 with a very nice black Cubbard stand that he used for a lizard he wants to sell for $50. Thinking about grabbing it just for later on when I "need" a fix like a junkie...lol
Kinda hard to beat the price though...its in excellent condition.

Sorry Brookster123. I just noticed after reading the post again you asked if I got the sat + pro. YES I DID and I can't wait for it to get here. I feel like a kid on Christmas Eve...lol

Dale - Did you get it yet? If so how is it? I am contemplating pulling the trigger on the plus pro 48". I have a deep tank too.

 

[DaleV87]

Not yet. I was too cheap to pay the $151 for overnight or $101 for 2nd day.
I opted for Ground Shipping and "FREE"....ha ha.
I am scheduled to receive it 1st of next week. I'm chomping at the bits excited to see it up.
I'll keep Ya posted and maybe a pic or two when I get it.

I actually had the chance yesterday on Amazon to get it for $244 and now I waited til this morning. They sold out

But I found another vendor, and got it for the same price as you with Prime 2day Shipping! So I should have it no later than Tuesday!

 

[DaleV87]

Mine had been sitting 20 minutes away since 3:00 am on Sat.
But it was definitely worth the wait my wife says.

Holy Cow! I just saw my new Sat + Pro when I walked in the door.
This is some serious light even through 36" of water. What a difference. Can't wait to see the results in the plants.
Next I will put the Eco complete fine black substrate.
