It's a Current USA Sundial, 150W DE + 64W actinics.
This is the lighting fixture I had over my tank- it's 6 months old.
I'm selling it for $175- the cheapest I found it was $230 on Marine Depot, but shipping would bump the price up to probably $250. Also, one would not want to use the stock bulb in it and so would have to order another bulb, now putting the total cost over $300. My fixture comes with a 3-month-old Radium bulb. This bulb, along with the actinics, looks excellent and has a surprisingly high PAR for a 150W bulb with a whiteish blue look
I tested the PAR with a meter: if you are serious about buying the fixture, I'll let you know about the PAR values that I measured.
This light has a narrowly focusing reflector, so it is perfect for smaller tanks or for other tanks where one does not need the light "perfectly" spread over a larger area.
Comes with: 6 month old PC actinics, the Radium 150W DE bulb, the full hanging kit with attractive silver plates to cover the hole made in the ceiling, and dual built-in timers that control the actinics and halide separately.
Besides only having 1 plug, the ballast is built into the fixture along with a cooling fan. If the light is hung closer to the tank, an extra cooling fan blowing across the surface of the tank will probably take care of most temperature issues.
-I'll include a cooling fan for free.-
