I think if this is all true somebody should tell PFO, see Solaris is still up on their site http://www.pfolighting.com/pfoaquatics/SolarisMain.aspx

I'm glad J&L took them down. This lawsuit has been pending for some time and lots of industry insiders knew about it long before Reef Builders and Glassbox posted about it on their blogs. I was tempted to email J&L when they posted their most recent sale to question them about the timing of the sale given PFO is seemingly going to go belly up leaving consumers without any support. Additionally, retailers in the US were removing these lights and discontinuing sales starting nearly two weeks ago. I thought it was funny that the J&L sale was a mere 10% off for a light that was knowingly having such huge difficulties.

Quite a while ago I bought a m.h. coralife product and was not aware of the nightmare
that would follow. It was according to my dad a piece of crap. I was a little scared of it to begin with. But once I got it I found some problems with the bulbs not fitting. I phoned the people who sold it to me, many times and finally was told to talk directly to them and proceded to get the run around, anyone ever shipped back a metal hallide light. Those suckers are heavy. Needless to say I have it still in a storage room. Talk about a sore spot....buyer beware.

If anyone is interested in LED units, you can easily build one for a reasonable price that will work efficiently for a lot of light over a smaller tank... I'm planning on building one myself for a pico-reef that I'll start a thread about soon, and there are some great threads on Nano-reef.com about it.
Unfortunate about PFO though, I was eventually going to need some MH ballasts made by them for the 20 gallon. Hope they survive!
