Does anyone know if the monterey stand has a center brace in the front? I cant seem to find a pic anywhere of this stand with its doors open. It will be the 48x18 size for a 75 gallon.

Im a lil torn betweeen these 2 fixtures. Now i know ATI is a much better product all around but im a lil disappointed. I can get the sunpower for a pretty good price but why wouldnt ATI build timers in the fixture and include bulbs? The aquaticlife comes with a built in timer and with bulbs. It...
