Looks good. Should fill out nicely

Well, this should put that LED "can't grow SPS" debate to rest.

Can't wait to check this out in person.

We also gave up on the GHL Mitras for our SPS system. Just not enough PAR to keep them well colored.

Currently swapping them out for 400w 20k Radium MH.

yeah im having a hell of a time finding a color that i like that the corals like as well , i have something down now and the corals seem to be loving the spectrum but i personally hate the color.

my sps issue was more of poor reefer practise and we wanted an instant sps tank so dipping got skipped, i knew better but it is what it is . first came the nudis for montipora then ended in a AEFW bout.

as far as leds go period theres none that i really like , seems if you play with the colors to something that is visually appealing the corals suffer.

i had to drop the mitras down another 4" but seems to bleach lps easily enough , my chalices arnt happy at all but everything else has finally come around


cheers

400w Radium give off a lot less PAR then the GHL Mitras I dont think it can be done. where you lamps on 100%

Xenon, this would be an absolute first, your systems are very new on the scheme of things I highly doubt in 12" water you have PAR issues when tanks 3 times that depth are turning their lamps down due to burning corals.

Even a commercial system

Mitras system in 30" of water

I can assure you the brightness of a 400w Radium completely blows away the GHL Mitras with all color channels @ 100%.
