hawksn3st Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 My local fish tank runs these on all his nano tanks. He swears by them for a nano size Biocube 14 and under. All his tanks look great and corals color and growth seem great. Now he sells them for 100 but I bought mine on ebay for 28. Anyone have experience with these? Link to comment
Halo_003 Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 Post a review, at $28 I'd buy one for my QT. Link to comment

Horerczy Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 I assume it's nine 1 watt leds not 9 leds that total to 1w? Link to comment

Horerczy Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 It should be functional. It will make red corals look like butt. Link to comment
hawksn3st Posted November 19, 2014 Author Share Posted November 19, 2014 Is that just because the white is so bright? Link to comment
hawksn3st Posted November 21, 2014 Author Share Posted November 21, 2014 it came in the mail today i will post pics of it when im off work Link to comment
hawksn3st Posted November 24, 2014 Author Share Posted November 24, 2014 ok sorry its so late! this light is actually really nice.for 28 bucks it feels solid. has an aluminum body and plastic that feels pretty stout for the end caps. the leds are very solid and seem just tlike the qwuality of the higher end lights. i used to have an ecoray60 led that the power supply burnt up and this little guy gives off the same color and vibrancy you look for. i cant say longevity yet but for 28 bucks you caould buy a second one as back up and still not be breaking the bank. here are some pics. the first one is the before with t5 lights the stock biocube comes with with. then will be the unboxing and set up on the tank with the new beamswork light ps the zoas i just got 2 days ago. they look absolutely amazing in the light especially the blue only they glow bright green!

googlethat Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 I have one on a 5.5 gallon , it's managed to keep a neon green candy cane alive for almost a year but the single , small xenia frag in the tank hasn't grown a lick . I'd pass . Link to comment
