I finally did it!

I ordered the 60" Outer Orbit 2x 250 MH w/ T5HO bulbs...hopefully this was the right decision!
Got a good price on it at Marine & Reef ($868 w/free shipping).

How do you like it. Just ordered a 48 inch version myself and haven't found many reviews on there latest fixtures. Did you use legs or the hanging kit?

 

[jmack]

I am using the legs..it is incredibly bright...I almost wonder if it's TOO much light. Daylight all the way to the bottom of the tank. If my ceiling wasn't so high I would use the hanging kit cause it tends to warm up the tank. It's a beautiful light though..especially the moonlights...you get blue and white. I think you'll be happy with it!

How loud is the fans?

 

[jmack]

Not loud at all..I noticed it a little when i first got the light but I think you must get used it..it's not bad at all, really.
