Kessil for new tank build info ???
Hi, ordering 72"x30"x24"H tank . Was originally thinking evergrow lights but another option is Kessil.
The Kessil's aren't that much more $ . Thinking I would need 3 . Worried about, will it light the 30" wide tank ??? Also is there much light leakage or is it all focused into the tank ? How do you find the sps growth ? Any other info would be appreciated . Thanks Mark |

defiantly go kessil imo, 3 would probably be fine Im running 2 x a360w on a 48x48x20 cube and it has some light spill . the w has a pretty big coverage zone .

I'm a kessil fan. I'm using 2x 360we over my 48x20x20 and had the intensity at 85 - things weren't happy and I've just pulled the 2x down to 70 - i think 70 or 75 will be my sweet spot..... Maybe even 65.
I want to use 3x for the added light source and will just decrease the intensity to 55 or 60..... Just remember that LEDs are directional light - regardless of the angle of the lens below the diode. Last edited by hfp75; 07-09-2015 at 05:23 AM. |

personally I prefer the pendant style I have them hanging from my roof , the pendants are much cleaner than that fixture .

Thanks for the input . What is selling me is : small & compact , the shimmer it produces . Seems like a quality light w/controller at a competitive price .
