I switched on my little 25 gallon cube. Had a sol super blue and it did okay, zoas grew, and stuff did stuff.
Changed over to a 4 bulb T5 setup and everything just exploded. Zoa colonies that were sprouting one polyp a month had 3 new buds in a week.
Now it could have been my ignorance about led's, not saying I had it tuned perfect or blah blah blah, but it's just easier. Lights come on, lights go off, constant light and spectrum all over the tank. No percentages or ramping. It almost took the fun out of it tinkering with the led's.
To add some pop and a little shimmer I still have some royal blues but glad I switched. Just easier.
