Looks pretty clean now and more room for your arm to move in the tank!
No timers or software Chris. Perfect for me. No programming, just point and shoot. You can adjust the intensity of each spectrum individually, but that's about it. Just plug them into any appliance timer and you're good to go.

Yeah, they sure clean up the tank. No more large ballasts and large fixtures.
I think they give more shimmer than my halides did

No ballasts, just a small power supply the same size and style as a laptop
