You bashed the radion's price... then you bashed LEDs in general...

I think your head is too hard. We all know they will all grow coral... we all know lightining storms and red and green LED's aren't necessary for that growth... But... some people want to pay a company an extra $200 for a similar light to install those features on their light!

I misread your $200... I thought you wrote $200 dollars more... Either way, the number doesnt matter. We are talking about price difference vs. personal desires.

Im not even argueing... Im talking to a wall.

I have a sticker that says "I respect your opinion, I just dont want to hear it"... I should cross out "I respect" and mail it to Marko. *So he can put it on his door

If you don't understand that people have different interests or preferences than you do, your not going to get anywhere. There is no way to explain why certain 'scientifically un-necessary to coral growth' features are 'better' than others, other than personal feelings. The cost for this fixture's 'fancy features'... the result of feelings that some have and you dont. (and things like Brett mentioned, such as customer service, or component quality).

Cheers,
Chris
