What type of lights are over your reef??

[shollis2814]

I have Marine Orbit LED system and two Ecoxotic stunner strips that I put into an old light hood and covered the inside with reflective metallic tape. I am getting good growth. If I had it to do over again, I would go with the Orbit Pro.

Couldn't be happier with my three 120W LED fixtures. Two Apollos (now out of business) and one Mars Aqua. The Mars Aqua is the one in the middle and has had the lenses pulled off. Originally T5's and never going back! Oh, and this is a custom five foot 90 gallon tank.

I bought a aqua seal life 6 foot 3x 250 watt 15k halide im planning on cutting it down to 4ft and try a single 250 watt for a few hours in the middle of the lighting schedule n see how the corals like it maby lol

Two 400w halides and 4- 60" t5 with 4-8" blue reef brites

I have a 75g with 2 Kessil A160WE's supplemented with 2 T5 HO ATI bulbs, Blue + and Coral +. The Kessil's are on a 12 hour schedule and the T5's come on an hour after the Kessil's reach peak intensity and stay on for 5 hours. Everything looks good so I'm happy with the set up.

I have run or do run pretty much all types of lighting , I have several aquariums.

Right now I have led over my main tank. I am happy with the results except I need to at least double the fixtures because of shadows and self shading. While corals are small leds is fine for sps but as they grow you need allot more fixtures than recommended. My lps seem to prefer leds over pretty much every light I have ever used. I may switch this tank either to hybrid led/t-5 or just back to t-5 or I may just not have some sps in the tank. I am not the fan of the cluttered look with a ton of led spot lights.


I had been running on my main tank t-5 very a very long time and have always been super happy with t-5. I think overall t-5 is the easiest to use.

Halides I love the color, shimmer, colors of the corals for sps.

Started out w/ Kessil 360 we's. Great for zoas and most lps and not so great luck w/ sps. But, having said that I did not use a PAR meter which I know I should have.

LED, Kessil a360.

but seriously questioning it at this point, might be switching back to t5

 

[happyhourhero]

SB Reef Lights LED. Happy!

T5s for me, ATI Sunpower units.

I just added a ReefBrite strip to my frag tank earlier this week and liking it so far.
