Well said and a great idea...I think there's a place in this hobby for all price ranges of lighting and all the other equipment for that matter. I think newcomers get intimitated by some of the high prices upon entering the hobby, but they don't realize you can achieve success from equipment that is far less expensive and sometimes can give you better results. Ultimately this is an expensive hobby, but you don't have togo full highend to have a great tank.

There should be a study on Depreciation value on equipment in the aquarium hobby....Our hobby changes faster than most, there will always be bigger and better.
