Both are the same price with HQI ballast I have search for information but I was wondering if anyone here has had any experience with them and could give me some information on which is better.

You may want to check and see if the Aqua Medic has an electronic ballast or not. At one point in time those lamps came standard with a magnetic ballast.

Also, the aquamedic pendants look pretty sweet, but I've always questioned the reflector. On the PFO the reflector is polished aluminum, while on the aquamedic it is a hammered aluminum.
