I've gone thru 3 Coralife Fixtures. The wires do not come out the side they come from the back, there does'nt look like theres any lunar light which usually come with all of them. The lens for the PC's usually go end to end. Theres no fans on the top. So I guess I dont have to say I disagree on what brand it is.

I can't find a tag on it. It has two fans out of the side opposite of the cords. It uses 30w blue t3's. The metal halides I am not sure. I tried to pull it apart, but it must be sticking with the salt buildup on it. I left it alone and will try to loosen it with vinegar or something. Don't want to break it.

It does'nt say on the ballasts? And do you mean T5's? Coralife only uses PC's for the supplemental lighting. Most people will say it's good if it's not a Coralife. I never had a problem when I ran them but most people say Coralife is junk.
