Long Story Short:
I will be Upgrading to the new Orphek Atlantik LED Lighting units. They are due to arrive soon (a few weeks).
As a result; I will be passing along my current Orphek Nilus LED units onto a friend of mine. In return; I/he will be selling his Orphek PR-156W (wide optics) LED units with 120 degree optics. Price: $850 for BOTH units, SHIPPED with Tracking (from Toronto). These units have the WHITE casing, NOT Black.
He has only had these units for about 3 months. They are in MINT shape. Feel free to perform an online search for these lights and read up on them. They still have the highest PAR and PUR output than their current competitors.

Take a look at the first page/tab for the unit's specs. The 2nd page/tab has customer reviews.
I can also provide a couple of references from some members of this forum that I've conducted business with in the past (sales and purchases). Please feel free and research the pricing and specs for other comparable units and even the inferior units at this price point.

SPS and LPS has had nice growth under these lights for the short period of time he has had them. Pictures to follow shortly.
Full Disclosure: The Good, The Bad, The Ugly.....
The Good:
MINT Condition - running flawlessly. Only a few months old. 2 units for LESS than the price of 1 shipped! (Yeah....we're crazy like that.) $850.00 for BOTH units, SHIPPED with Tracking.....not currently entertaining breaking up the pair......yet (unless you make us an offer we can't refuse
). Pictures of the units and the display tank (48" x 30" x 24") will be made available soon.

Conditions: $100 Refundable deposit (within a mutually accepted specified time frame) until my new lights arrive. Balance of $750.00 upon shipping availability (this will allow you some to save some $ in the meantime as well).
The Bad:
Depending how you view this point it may not even be an issue: These units are NOT dimmable. Simple on and off timers/settings for the white lights, blue lights and moonlights. Compare with other brands that are also not dimmable - price point does not come close to the value of these lights. Refer to 'Conditions' listed above.
The Ugly:
No Ugly.
