Sorry, I am a stupid newb mixing terms.
I should have said do I need the 90 degree lenses over a 24x24x20 cube?
Can I just order the same one as you? Or do I need 120 degree lenses.
Thanks

By black box do you mean the chinese ones? I still have mine. I am almost to a year now. Here is the latest pic of my tank. Sorry so bright, i am not good at taking pictures with the leds. You can see my tank on page 3 from Dec 2011

Link didn't work but I am setting up the 24x24x24 cube that is going to be all SPS. So I am guessing the same one would be fine?

Now why are these ones 165 and the other link ya post werecloser to 175 like 173? They seem the same too me except the cheaper ons are a 1 to 1 ratio and the other were 30blu 25 white I think
They have a 90* lenses

So which is better 90or 120? Or just depends on tank depth?

Got the idea on optical and the only thing I worry about is that they look too blue. it seems like a lot of these unit's from china are very blue? the white color temp is saying 18k?

Ok so what are the par readings or lms on these units? Don't see them anywhere ... Also which optics are better?

Thius is because they are more interested in selling advertisement propoganda than anything else. Just think a 14,000K or 20,000K light is blue to start with. If has minimal red and green its spectrum. This is what they are using for whites because it sounds like a good selling point. Now you add the Royal Blues and it looks even bluer.

do not worry about lumens this has no effect on anyting in the reef it just tells you how much total visable light energy is produced.
Almost the same is tru for PAR. It tells you what phorosentetic available of light is prioduced usable by terestial plants. Corals can only use a little bit of red light while your lawn loves all the red light it can get.
