Vertex Illumina LED
So Spenser is tempting me with one of these new led fixtures.. It's pretty wicked in what it can do.. But can it grow corals? Does anyone have this light that can give me some feedback?

Lol but it's gotta grow stuff as well as look wicked.. And I would probably have to give Spenser partial custody.. He's growing very attached to it

From what I remember reading some time ago about LED lighting is that they will keep corals alive but at a reduced rate of growth. Apparently they lack the UVA/UVB radiation output that the corals get from the sun and halide lighting and it is a factor in growth rates.
