they are having a pretty good sale on them at dr foster smith, the 48 in 4 light unit is on sale for 199.99 reg 269.99
 
We have one on an account at work with the Nova and it seems to be a decent light. If you don't mind spending the money I would look at something with individual reflectors, like the tek. There is a huge price difference though so I can understand going with a unit with the single reflector, especially when its on sale.

If you don't plan on housing predominately high light creatures (clams/SPS) i think it would be a great light.
 
I have that exact light on my 75 gallon reef. I keep a maxima clam, and zoa,s and all do well. I, personally, like it very much. It has 2 switched for daylight, and dawn/dusk, and cooling fans built in. However, I wish I had gotten the 432 watt fixture, rather than the 216.

It's got 4 LED moonlights, but they really can't be seen unless the room is completely dark.
 
Umm...I can get you one tonight. I'm at my dad's right now, and I have no pics of that tank here. It looks a little yellow, but i'm gonna switch out one 10K bulb, and replace it with another actinic.
 
Ok, I can't seem to figure out how to post pics on here, so i'll update it into my website. It's not the red house one, so don't click that. I'll post a link once it's up.
 
that looks pretty good but i think im just gonna drop the extra 30 bucks and get the tek light and just make some moonlights to go over the tank
