I wish I had the $$ right now for this.

Fish-street.com is in Europe, I believe and shipping for the the G2-230 is $247.50 via UPS which was the only option. Where did you see $15 shipping?

Fish-street.com is located in Hong Kong.

Calculated UPS

i have a 20g mixed reef (mainly sps and lps).....wondering if the 60w is enough or the 110w would be more ideal....im running a 150w MH and 2 18" vho's right now

 

[NYreefNoob]

the 110 or the 160 auto

I too looked into fish street. The shipping they charge from wherever they ship from makes the light more expensive than offered here.

Broad Street, Market Street - yes.
Fish Street - no.

Their policy for delivery is very strange and "fishy". No local pickup and has to be delivered even if you are located in HK. Like other items on ebay from HK, they charge an outrageous amt fo so called shipping and handling but they are really trying to make profit not by the sale price but the "shipping and handling" charges. Is this a way for them to avoid paying tariff and custom?

I am particularly interested in the 160W which cost $471 at the site. Considering the group buy price for it is $510 including shipping, that's not bad.

woo hoo mine left hong kong and is on it's way to the u.s so hopefully by the end of week i have it

 

[greenstreet.1]

waiting to pay for mine

 

[bigyankfan]

For comparisson purposes only (your shipping fee may vary): the G2-230, including shipping, from Fish-street is $1022.75 - through the GB it is $810.

Just curious. How long did it take you to get to this point from the time you send your inqury?

 

[bigyankfan]

The guy I arranged the Group Buy with said 7 - 10 days transit time to the US.

Might pick up a 160w for a future tank, gotta think about this

 

[AMDPhenomX4]

Any info on the CREE version? I would prefer it over the junky 30W whites. Otherwise i may be in for 2 G2 160W non cree. Whats the degration per year on the leds?

 

[ryder11211]

Could a 230w model potentially cover a 36x24x24 tank if the corals were placed strategically (not everywhere)...?

 

[bigyankfan]

As stated in the second post, there will be no customizations to the standard configurations at the GB price. The degradation question I can ask for you and post the reply here.
