Your sps collection closely rivals mine nicely done! What bulbs are you running?

Man o man, that is sweet! I wished my lights weren't on back order. How does these compare to the mitras in terms of brightness, light spread footprint, overall which one do you prefer more?

Seemed brighter, but right now I've got the light setup for the 50hr burn in phase so they are at 100% from 10am-10:30pm. So it's pretty bright. Light spread seems to be about the same to be honest. I have this fixture much closer the water level than I ever had my Mitra, so it's pretty much didn't change, either way my front room is flooded with light and it looks like a grow-op from the street and neighbors. :lol:

I can't answer the last part of your question just yet. I need to see how dimming function works after the bulbs burn in and see how my current corals (yes, there are some in there) take to the new light.
