Current USA Italian Glass Pendant

[J-LUIS]

Do any of you own the Current USA Italian Glass Pendant?

I have a oceanic cube 30 gal for about 4 months empty all because I can't fig out what light I want LOL. SO now Im thinking on getting the Current USA Italian Glass Pendant. Due to it's nice slick style. I plain on doing a fish only tank with may be only having one live rock with mushroom coral's.

Can anyone give me feed back on this?

Here's the pic I found on line.

Not a big fan of specialty lighting like this. It's a 55w power compact round 2C bulb. You will be limited to buying the Current bulb and if they stop making that bulb for some reason, you might be out of luck getting another suitable replacement.

That's one thing that I did think about. I been looking and everything I seen would just make this tank look ugly. This tank is in the living room. So it's the first thing people see when walking in to my house. So I want it to blend in with the rooms decor.

So far this one looks to win over as of good looking. But I know the out put not the best. I been thinking hard for some time for this tank. Should I do a reef or fish only. I have a reef tank in my bio cube, and it's like my child LOL.

here's a other place who makes the same light and it cost a bit less.

Another Current fixture, might be a bit much for a fish only. You can get a similar look with the optional hanging arms.

I had one over my 34g Solana when I first got the second one. It is sitting in my basement now collecting dust. It was a nice light but I wanted the MH so the two tanks matched.

Doesn't say what color it is? Chances are it's not 10k or 50/50.

true.

WOW THAT DO LOOK NICE! I CAN SAY. SO HOW DID YOUR SOFT CORAL DO IN THAT TANK WITH THAT LIGHT.?

I DONT WANT TO HANG ANYTHING FROM THE CEILING AND CAN ONLY ADD ONE ARM TO BEHIND MY TANK. SO THIS IS ONE THING I'M LIKING SO FAR.

THEY DO HAVE A MH ONE WELL LIKE THIS ONE BUT ITS JUST DO MUCH MONEY FOR SOMETHING SO THIN AND SPACE SHIP LOOKING. :-)
