Any reports of the new LED fixture from Marineland? I have heard rumors that a few have been sent out to be reviewed. I want to know what is going on. What are the changes, when can I get one, and what is the price?

I do not have a website. I got an email from Marineland about 2 months ago that stated the new light was about to be released and they are very excited about it. I heard from talking face to face with a few people about the light and was told a few had hit the streets. Just looking for info now.Fishtafarian- Fish are more than just a hobby, they are an obsession.

Its a nice fixture. Very bright compared to the last gen. I was kinda disappointed with the last gen model. This one is a great improvement and they look really nice too.

From the info on the web link, it looks like all they did was up the light output and the price. I was hoping for more lighting control (seporate for blue/white) so you could set them to timers. I do not need that much light for freshwater. Nice light but a little disapointed. May just pick up the 1st generation on clearance. Could buy two or three for the price of one of the new ones.Fishtafarian- Fish are more than just a hobby, they are an obsession.

If its the one I looked up this thing is to weak for SW. Good on a FW tank though.

Confirmed, they should be shipping out october 1st 2010. There will also be a plant model, but it will come out later in the year (nov-dec. hopefully). The ones coming out are one watt. The three watts units are coming out later. Hope that helps. I will get pricing closer to the release date.

I don't know guys. After reviewing the PAR readings those light is really weak at deeper levels and does not have strong wide coverage.
Looks like a fixture for lower-light corals.
Peak PAR may be like MH at the middle and 12'' deep but it can't reach as wide or as deep as a MH.
Wonder why they just didn't use the 3w LEDs.I ate my fish that died.
