Hi everybody,

sorry for my absence. I have been ill, but am better now. Interesting to see the discussion, although I did not expect it #:-S Let's keep it civil and learn from the discussion. As far as the lighting is concerned, I see quite a lot of not so positive remarks; maybe I'll pass on putting one of these in my tanks.
I also find that my fish are quite easily spooked at night, so I would not want to aggravate that. Thanks everybody for contributing!

alleycat...I have Marineland lights on a show tank of mine and I really enjoy using the moon light feature..nobody freaks out and the synodontis are more active when they are on as opposed to the usual daytime white lights...and it looks kinda cool in the late evening.

So to answer your original question, for me I say I like them.
