britfish Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 I'm planning on upgrading my lighting and came across Catfish Lighting while searching the net. They are made in the USA, excellent prices and claim customer service is #1. Thought I'd share this with the rest of the group. Check them out at http://www.catfishlighting.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Headless_donkey Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 Search nano-reef.com for catfish reviews. A lot of people on that site have tried them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael_t Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 I've had my Catfish Lighting MH 250 watt 36" light for about three months now with out any problems. My only complaint is that the MH bulb is a little yellow for my tastes. I'll be upgrading the bulb in a few months so that's really minor. Also, it uses a newer electronic ballast, not like the emfamous ballasts from the old Odessy's. Michael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
britfish Posted June 1, 2007 Author Share Posted June 1, 2007 After checking some more I believe Catfish, like AquaTraders and Hombby, are resellers for Odyssea or some other generic light. I've been checking the forums and the new ballasts appear to me a major improvement, they run cool and no reported problems! IMO these lights are excellent value and I'm pleased to hear you haven't had any problems. Like you say the bulb is minor issue as you just replace them sooner rather than later.
