Vertex Illumilux - Looks like a good step in LED for the masses.

Im guessin youd need 2 or 3 even for an ap12 to get decent front to back coverage.

Ah, yeah, you'd probably want 1-2 units depending on what you're keeping and the type of rock work within the tank. 3 beams would be excessive, IMO, that's 45W of LED light which could easily burn most corals at the height of that tank.

Leds are a little different then other types of lighting. Quantity and spacing define coverage while optics, height and current will more so define strength of the light... So to speak.

I know

If I can snag one from JL, I'm just gonna throw one on top of my ap12 and see how it goes with just one light.

I'm hoping it will be comparable to the 70W HQI thats on there...

I'm sure this will be easy to sell if it's not quite what I'm looking for.
