youll have to browse through the journal to see what the differences are , personally compared to halides with this tank the radions arnt quite as good as my halide was , spread wise the tank is darker , things at the bottom are just as happy as they were with the halides but the stuff on top of the tank is growing much faster since the switch.

i started at 30% and 10-12" above water level( i dont reccommend 8" )

im now comfortably at 60% peak during the day.

the switch over was a little hard on my thin fleshed corals like chalices, favias and some of my sps .

heres the link to my journal:
