Thanks for clarifying that. What does it look like with just the 3w blues on?

I can't see how 160 w of LEDs are going to sustain SPS thats half if that over the tank 500 w over a 120 gal
so you are getting half of a 250 w bulbs spread over the 4x2x2 I cant see that being enough

One thing to remember is that the LED is incredibly efficient. The MHs emit quite a bit of heat as well as light. With LEDs there is virtually no loss energy in heat therefore less wattage is required for similar light output.

I know my 160W LED blinds me when all bulbs on. It does rival a 250W easily. Hard to believe but once you see it in person you will become a believer.

Thanks for the information guys.

Blue!!! I would post a picture but it doesn't do it justice. The florescent greens are amazing! I will attempt to post a pic or two ASAP.
