| Hello! If you read my introduction, you will know that I was in search of a lighting fixture for my 37 gallon tank. My 37 gallon has a canopy as well (Senoma Marineland 30 inch canopy). Well, I searched and searched for the right lighting source as well as the best price. I found the Current Sundial T-5 Canopy Light Fixture for an amazing price of 207.99! (Dr. Fosters) however I ordered it from Marine Depot, which had it at $299.00 (BUT they did a price match and a 5 percent off  ) -pays to smart shop! I save over $100! (Now I can get the protein skimmer I always wanted) I just ordered it today, and should have it within a weeks time. Once I get it, I will do a complete review. The goal is to make the coral/fish happy here and make it easy on me. I found out that this unit has all the light sources I need, as well as timers built-in AND the fans are located in the back (perfect for canopy tanks owners!) -Woo Hoo! I noticed that this fixture has been around for over 2 years now with no system changes, so I conclude that it must be a good product. All but positive reviews online. Being that it is a 37 gallon tank (30 1/4 x 12 1/2 x 22 3/4) its a DEEP tank. I was afraid to get a HO T5 thinking that the depth of the tank being a challenge. However this lighting fixture has 4 lights in total, unlike most systems which have 2 lights. Given that, I hope this will be the solution I have been hoping for. Now, I only hope it fits in my canopy! ...stay tuned!

| I did't know Marine Depot does price matching, good to know thanks. Can't wait to read your review on your new light, I'm in the market for one myself. I hope it works out for you.
