I watched that video the other day. Didnt notice any disco ball. Did you see some somewhere or are you saying you didnt see any on this video?

I’ll post pics tomorrow of my 200 gallon. No disco ball at all, just a light shimmer.

Honestly, better than my ReefBreeder photon 50 V2+. My coral coloration looks much better. The Reef breeders are nice, but the only benefit they have over these is the app, which I’m fine with the Nicrew controller.

i just got the 100 - seems very nice - do i need the controller to set the 24 hour schedule?

I am super pleased with the 3 200 watt I purchased! Was worried I’d need 4. Nope! Great spread and the color pop is crisp. The only small complaint is the fans could be a little quieter, but it’s not a deal breaker. Well worth the buy! Solid par readings with my Apogee!

Thats good to hear! Second person to comment on the noise though. Can you compare it to anything as far as how loud they are? I need to go plug mine up and see... Thinking hopefully its not louder than something like my 11in Honeywell fan.

I think without an outlet timer you do. But if you use the rough manual controls, outlet timers can be pretty cheap.

Going to be setting up a 63” Tank here in the near future and I’m seriously considering these, or another similar option. Obviously the cost is the main factor. Looking at running 3 of these over a 63” Red Sea 650 Peninsula. 63” long by 24” high by 25 Tall. Would this be sufficient, more lights? Better fixture? I do have a spare AI32 that I just ordered that I could use, but would then need / want to use 3 of the hydras which in turn is going to be another $1000+

Finally got around to turning mine on. I would characterize the fan noise as maybe bothersome if you kept a silent house and had an open top with no canopy and maybe you worked right next to your reef tank. Even then it's not that loud and it's a white noise I think some if not most would get used to. It's definitely fair to point it out but I would say most people should not to be overly concerned about it. But this is my subjective opinion.

Not sure what wattage you're considering getting but I've little doubt these are going to be a sufficient lighting solution for any tank. These things are BRIGHT. Turned one unit on over an empty box and it made looking out my window at sunlight seem almost dim in comparison.

like how wide the gap is and how wide the clamp itself is?

Both please

The fan is loud. In a quiet room or setting, you will absolutely hear it and could be a deal breaker IMO.

dang... this is what I was afraid of

I just ordered the 100 , should I have got the 150 with more leds? Kinda thinking I should have but also kinda thinking it won’t matter, keeping lps and softies

 

[VintageReefer]

That looks really good

You can thank the WARM WHITE led's for the way these look.. stupid ecotech and other windex look mfr's mostly use COOL whites and not enough of em at that ...

 

[SanFernandoValleyAIOReef]

This 100 or 150?

 

[SanFernandoValleyAIOReef]

Is this the 100 or 150?
