Here, you can get em cheaper from this guy on ebay. I bought some of just the bulbs a year ago, and the bulbs are still way brighter than the 6 month old JBJ bulbs. I have also heard a bunch of people say that the fixtures were great for the price they paid.

The gerneral concensus among experienced reefers is that JEBO is cheap made in China junk. Looks nice, doesn't hold up nor is it well made. The best thing would be to save a bit more
$$$ and buy something that is made better. This stuff is expensive enough without having to buy things 2 or 3 times because you got junk the last time.

Hence why I said "...great for the price they paid". The bulbs are awesome, I haven't tried the actinics yet, but the 50/50's and the 10000k's are great. I do agree, if you can afford it, I would go with either coralife or current USA (fka CSL). The coralife's are great, and the current usa's are even better, cause they have moonlights for like 1/3 less than the coralife moonlight fixtures. I am using 2 different JBJ setups over my 50 right now, their ballasts are good, no flicker or anything, but the JBJ bulbs are horrible, thats why I have the jebo bulbs. I also have a current usa 2x40w fixture over my 10.
