Martin, will you be getting the Pro model in when it arrives to the market?
Do you know anything about the Pro model like what size tank it is suitable for?

Can you post more pics?

Is the top black shiny or matte? Aluminium or plastic/acrylic?

I am wondering how this light compares to the eco pico led light? I have added 2 extra strips to my eco pico light (for 9 led lights/3 strips in total, white/blue mix) but I find that that colour of the corals (my zoas) is on the dull side and the sps is browning out. Just wondering if the mini led would be a better light for my 2.5g. Would it show the colour of the coral/colour up the coral better or are the led's on both lights similar that I wouldn't notice a difference? I'm debating on eventually adding 2 more eco pico led strips or just buying a better led light. Wondering which would be a better way to go. Thanks Laurie

I would say you will get much more light from the Aqua Mini. It uses Cree 3w LEDs compared to the 1 in the EcoPico. It also has a good color ratio for Royal Blue to White.
