I find the reflector of fishneedit fixture isn't very good. The coverage area isn't wide enough and a lot of light is spilled. I can immediately tell that sides of the tank is so much brighter with the lumenmax reflector. The ballast of fishneedit is probably not as good as the bulb emits some buzzing sound when it fires up. Galaxy ballast doesn't do that.
I think the fishneedit unit is good for it's price. But I wanted something with better output for my sps.
