I use 10 watt emitters and over my 6' 165g mixed reef, I have 280w total. Over my 93g 30" mixed reef cube and my 60g 2' cube mixed reef, I have DIY pendants with 6 x 10w (3b;3w) and 1 blue 1w moonlight. These grow everything I place in my tanks from softies, to lps, to sps & clams. I would personally never use a Fluval or Marineland LED as my main light source.

Good info guys, thanks, keep it coming. I have found that there is sooooo much to learn in the marine tank hobby. Kinda overwhelming at first but it is good. I have to admit, lightning is not my strong points yet. Getting there slowly though. Anyone have the Reef Radiance lights? Great price and they seem to have really good followings and reviews. They are a 3w per LED light and have some cool options..
