I do find it strange that LED users will readily admit that MH/T5 lighting works, however the stubbornness of the majority of MH users is shown in their total reluctance to say there is any merit at all in LED lighting....just scanning through the last few pages I've seen a lot of hating on LEDs...
They break down
The colours aren't as good
My coral bleached
I couldn't get the results I was expecting
I got poor growth
Etc etc
I'm just wondering if all this is the case then how come LED lighting works?? And it does work, we all know it works and it works well. There just seems to be a real reluctance from some people to admit that. Possibly due to frustration that they couldn't get them to work 'it must be LEDs that don't work, it can't be user error on my part'....Possibly because they are expensive and people don't want to pay for them when they have perfectly fine MH lighting....or maybe because they're scared that in the near future LEDs will be recognised as the better lighting option, technology is improving all the time.
If only one person in the world ran an LED tank with beautiful corals, grown from frags, with amazing colours then it is proof that LEDs work....there's a hell of a lot more people than that having massive success with LEDs.
