Does anyone have any experience with this brand; I'm looking for some lights for my 10g. I want MH but I want actinics too. Anyone have any opinions on this fixture?

I'm also considering this one.

Any opinions or input would be helpful.

That is some serious light...

You'd be fine with just the two T5's and be able to support just about
anything in your tank, including clams and SPS.

I'm sure a 70 watt pendant halide would be good... just be aware of the heat.

I ended up getting the AquaMedic Oceanlight 150W pendant ( without the T5s ) from Aquatica, great store, the other day. I'm going to build something to hang it from and I'm going to incorporate some fans into that becase I know that heat will be an issue in a 10g tank with a halide.
