Recently changed from T5 HO to the IT2040 (similar LED's to the d120, I think?) and really like it, but it took awhile to get used to the blue factor :)

Did quite a bit of reading and it seems that most run a fairly high percentage of blue to white, but for me, I'm happier with a max of 65% white to 50% or less blue (slowly ramp up and down from this). Time will tell if the tank agrees ;)

Going back to your previous post back then, you said that Evergrow is the Best Bang for your Buck light fixture.:lol:

I run D2120 50% Blue 35% FullSpec and I love it with T5HO supplement. I used to run 90% Blue and 50% FullSpec, my SPS loves it however my LPS started bleaching so I turn it down. :cry:

I ran the 2080 over my all sps tank. Sold it and went to a 6 bulb Sunpower. Great colours but still not enough growth. So back led. Instead of the 2080 I bought two 2040,s.
As for the units themselves, I really like them, which is the reason I went back to the Evergrow as compared with other led fixtures. Not to mention the decent price.
