Bad @ss. I hope there's a dial on that to dim it

That mr x guy is actually correct. I have t5hos at home but at work I take care of a pretty nice tank with white and blues but 90 percent of the time its just the blues on. I have aussie buttons, open brains, acans, even sps, acros and birdsnest under these and they are growing at a very rapid...

Run a reactor with GFO. Best thing I did for my tank, if you have a sump. Use chaeto as well with a light on all the time

First one is undata for sure

I thought about getting thoes lights off ebay. Cheap. What do you think for a reef with sps mr x?

+1 for jeff

Basically as long as there's enough par, no need for atinics unless you want better looking corals. Color pop for our enjoyment. What about how deep will lights penetrate?

I am aware of this my friend. I was curious about lighting requirements. To boost my knowledge a bit more. There's a lot of things we all don't know about lighting. Not to just me, everyone who might read this thread just might learn somthing new today.
