    lighting help

    Would this lighting be sufficient to gorw LPS and SPS coral in a 65 gal tank (48 X18X17)? Thanks.

    Hi farstar,

    It sure would be enough. I am not too familiar with the Jebo items and what kind of bulbs/ballasts they use but 2-250w MH would be great!

    Scott,

    Where did you see two 250w metal halides? The fixture he linked comes with two 175w 20,000K metal halides and two 3' PC actinics.

    Uhhhh, I'm not sure? I thought that it said 250w but your right, it is a 175 set.

    This appears to be the same light at a better price.
    I'm not sure if these are exactly the same lights or not but I believe Jebo and Odyssea are made by the same company. (I could be wrong about that)
    I have heard the quality of these systems is questionable.

    I have heard the same thing. In fact, the last time this question came up, I searched "Jebo" on Reef Central and came up with quite a few negative comments about product quality.

    jebo and oddysea are the same company,

    i received my lights yesterday, and low and behold one of the 4 light bulbs was not working due to bad internal wiring. i ended up disbolting , taking it apart and check the wiring, it was bad rewiring.

    i ended up burning the lil fans due to my part on bad connections.

    the plastic part that protects the the water from splashing got broke in three parts cause i use excessive force cause it was stuck.

    i did get what i paid for.

    But all in all i will work around this, and have things my way.
