Actually they are rather good.. on a 48 inch tank you would want two of them. A lot of people use them on their 55-120g tanks with the most being on the 75-90-120's.
There is a person on nano reef selling 2 of these units right now.. and will take a reasonable offer..
Lets see.. 349.99 new, so I would offer 230 each unit plus shipping.

k if i got the mu 135 led fixture just one and got a par bulb for each side of it do u think that would be good enough or am i in a dream world with that idea should i just splurge for 2

You honestly should just go with the two mu units for full tank coverage.

then thats what i will do :) as for a sump do u guys think that a 10 gallon sump is big enough for a 55gallon 48 inch long tank. what i mean is will it be large enough to house a protein skimmer and and create a half decent size refugium, or should i make a seperate refugium to have more room for gadets i might need

this is the tank im working with i have started to fill it up only half way to keep some rock in it with a pumphttp://www.canreef.com/vbulletin/ ...y/IMG_2324.jpg i ordered a eshopps nano overflow box it is rated at 200 gph and then i have a koralia 750 pump ( i might order another one for the other side of the tank). i am going to get all the plumbing done once the over flow comes in. i have also ordered a coralife 65 protein skimmer and that will be im my sump. i will be making my sump/fuge sometime this week or weekend. and soon i will have 2 boost led 135 led mu lighting fixtures for my lighting i will keep u all posted.

my lights have also been purchased tonight from boost led. that was a heavy hit to my wallet. i know it will be worth it

I would say to go with a 20g Long sump if you are gonna have one.
