Not the purpose at all, sorry if it is doing that.

I'm pretty much astounded at the output of high end fixtures. I really wanted to get across how much difference they are making. I own current Nova Extremes, flat single reflector T5's - not even in the same ballpark. Nothing else I own is in the same ballpark, except my nano - and I don't think comparing 26 watts over a 2.5g, 8" deep tank is quite fair in comparison.

It is one of those things that paying for it hurts, and until you see it first hand, you figure there is no way to justify it - but let me tell you, the cost is justified. I am SO glad I paid the extra money, and so glad that folks like AaronT not only talked to me about, but showed me, how well these fixtures work.
