Micro-Reefs Aquariums Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Yeah, I would assume with the amount and power of those LEDs, you would have to turn it down pretty low Oh boy, I already have 5 tanks Mike! There needs to be a limit xD Christina, You will see what I mean, when you walk into the room and see this fixture lighting up the 6.2. It just looks unreal, like it shouldn't be there, like it's magic, it glows, it shines, words cannot explain what my retinas pick up. My camera couldn't pick up the LED lights, it kept flickering like crazy, it was weird. I just couldn't stop looking into the light, you girls will say, this light must go with us to Baja Reef it is no longer property of Micro-Reefs anymore until further test are done. Link to comment

Yeah, it's hard to capture LED lights with cameras I'll be checking your thread for the test results! Link to comment
yoshii Posted August 30, 2012 Author Share Posted August 30, 2012 Yesterday morning the tank was cloudy with bacteria, so last night I added a small piece of LR and a frag of zoas Today the water is clear again You know what this means...my 3g will share its light with this tank until I get my light from Micro-Reefs which means it's time to add more coral!
