Thanks Mike & Eli, I was thinking of trying it without optic's first but man its really bright & I can only trust my Profilux controller as to what % it is at. With the optics they seem a little dimmer but you know me I will end up trying it without the optics .

Hope to have it up on the tank by the weekend & hopefully I feel better to because I have to do something with the load pump that will probably involve some replumbing.

Grizz, the built is amazing. looking forward to see it on the tank. That's gonna be a lot of light for the 165, what kind of corals are you planning to keep?

It will be a lot of light for the 165 gal so that means I must get my arse in gear & get the 300 gal built.
