Official Entry!
I've never actually tried an Orphek light!
I'm slowly upping my coral game and these might be a game changer for me!

DAILY QUESTION: What is your top reefing resolution for the new year?

Downsizing my maintenance load. 6 tanks is too many haha. So I'm going to plumb three together into one system with AWC!

 

[Kristopher Conlin]

DAILY QUESTION: What’s your top priority: coral growth, color, or ease of use when it comes to lighting?

Color absolutely. You should only need to set them up once. And growth eventually becomes a problem.

Could definitely use a proper, new light

 

[joeoliver]

official entry

i need it to spread the light throughout my tank and reach those corners.

I really like the look of these and if I won would probably kick start me into a new tank build lol

Hey, don't forget this week @Baby_Shark

 

[banik]

DAILY QUESTION: What’s your dream coral?

Something beautiful, unique, and hardy that only I can grow :-D

Seriously though, there are so many awesome corals that my problem is tank size

 

[banik]

DAILY QUESTION: How important is dimming control for your reef tank lighting setup?

Very - daily schedule is part of my automation

 

[banik]

DAILY QUESTION: What’s one feature you wish your current reef lights had? OR if your current lighting ticks all the boxes, what's your favorite feature?

I'd like a bit better UI. Reefi Uno Pro's have a UI from a hardware guy, which is fine for me, just takes some time

 

[banik]

DAILY QUESTION: Do you currently use supplemental lighting, and if so, what’s your setup?

Only if you count a fuge light!

 

[mehaffydr]

I would like to try out this new lite. I have a large tank and extra light is always good

 

[mehaffydr]

DAILY QUESTION: Do you currently use supplemental lighting, and if so, what’s your setup?

Not at this time

 

[banik]

DAILY QUESTION: Have you ever experienced issues with algae growth due to lighting, and how did you solve them?

I'm having problems with some non-macroalgae in my fuge. Will need to figure it out.

 

[banik]

DAILY QUESTION: What’s your top priority: coral growth, color, or ease of use when it comes to lighting?

Growth and visual appeal.
