If you were one of the lucky ones to see the AquaBeam 1000 HD Ultra LED lighting system Quality Marine had on display at IMAC West or Reef-A-Palooza and were looking to get your hands on one, now is your chance. Quality Marine just announced this unit is now in stock and ready to ship to your favorite LFS. According to testing done in house at Quality Marine, the AquaBeam 1000 HD Ultra units have comparable PAR output to a 150W metal halide, giving you a low energy and low heat alternative to add that sweet shimmer effect but with PAR benefits. The AquaBeam 1000 HD Ultra units offer a minimum of 50,000 hours of lamp life and in the unlikely event that a problem arises, the unit is guaranteed for five years. Since Quality Marine is a wholesaler, your favorite LFS can contact their Quality Marine rep and get a price quote and see about securing you one of these lights.
