zooman72 Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Looking to see if anyone has one they are no longer using, and hopefully in good to great shape - would like to light my jawfish nano (dimming feature would be nice, and less stressful than the on/off light I currently am using)... LMK, and thanks... Link to comment
xmas_one Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Check on eBay, Current sells refurbished units there on the cheap. Link to comment
zooman72 Posted November 20, 2017 Author Share Posted November 20, 2017 I have looked on Current's Ebay refurb section - nothing of note (i.e. they can be obtained for less new on Amazon, etc.)... Link to comment
samnaz Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Would you be interested in a Current Orbit Pro 18-24" ? Link to comment

I would (already use one on my IM 20g Nuvo Fusion), but I am afraid I don't need that much illumination/ intensity as I don't currently have any corals in the aquarium (unless you are selling for "dirt cheap"), just 2 pair of Haitian yellow headed jawfish, and the 1st-gen non-Pro Orbits are typically cheaper (typically around $50 used, $100 new). I already have a light over the tank (12" BuildMyLED 20K strip), and I was just looking for an inexpensive option that provides dimming (less stressful on the fish). I have an 18" 1st-gen Orbit on my 4.5g flower nem tank, and it works well enough for the nems, and would be perfect for the jawfish... Thanks though... Link to comment

Keep checking there, every once in a while they will have an auction and sell for ~50 + shipping, I’d just get a new one with free shipping on amazon for 95 though. Link to comment

Yeah, I am thinking that might be the route, new through Amazon, but I am in no rush - the jawfish are doing great (came in thin, but are eating great and thickening up), and seem to be getting the hang of the current strip light simply shutting off as they tuck in for the night just before it shuts off. Also, all PM's replied - I have received no less than 4 offers for 18" Orbit Pros, and while I would probably accept one of those if I was housing coral, I really have no need for that much light intensity with the present aquarium. Unless someone is willing to let an 18" Pro go for around $50-$60, I am not really interested, sorry. Also, I know how much they used to cost, but they are now going for $120 shipped from a couple of places as they have been discontinued - I picked up the one I have over my IM 20g at that price. So, in summary, still looking... Link to comment
