Dimmable 120w 30blue/25white $165 Black Box :spin1:


Seriously... This is the picture 3 and 7 that was mentioned earlier... Truly blueish tank..

This is what I have and it is sharp at full power
and the 30 blues make for a BAM blue only evening
 
Just one

Just one

Hey all, I am looking at purchasing a light directly from Cidly and am having some reservations about my selection. So I am hoping some of you will throw me some opinions here. I have a 37 Gallon (20"x18"x24") and was planning on purchasing the A6 with the following config:

Switch 1: 20 Blue, 4 UV
Switch 2: 24 White (10,000 K), 12 Blue, 12 Royal Blue

Is this overkill for my tank? I do want to house some SPS. Should I be looking at the A4? Just would like some opinions before I pull the trigger. Thanks.

Im thinking you could get away with a 55x3w unit... Easy
30 b/25 w...

I got 2 on my 125 and I'm tight... SPS and LPS...

Yea I'm with bhazard and ianwraab an a4 or a d120 would be pleanty....

One d120 on my 65 and its totally lit up and so far corals like it
 
Can someone post for the pictures for comparisons in the following config?
28 blues and 27 whites, and
30 blues and 25 whites,
 
Great so far its been a week and if anything there out more often and just as bright in color

My pics are 30 blues 21 whites 4 violets

I wouldn't go any less blues then 30 blues to 25 white and personally id do 35 blus 20 whites... The whites are powerful for me 30 blues 25 whites wouldn't be blue enough but everyone has a diff taste
 
I went with the generic 30 blues 25 white. Spoke with Hendy, and they were wicked nice. I can't wait to get this thing in... Already went to HomeDepot to get all of the chain and hooks for the hanging setup. Going to be annoying trying to get it level (steep slope roof on a 2nd floor apt) but it will be worth it in the end.

Thank you all for the heads up, pics, and info to get me away from the kessils (saved me tons of $$$)
 
I've got two of Reefbreeders.com value fixtures that should come in sometime next week. They should be dimmable via my Reef Angel controller.
 
Suprisingly enough my phone takes better pics then my wifes good camera haha still not exact but viewable

Travis,

Thanks for the pics. Going to get about the same configuration as you have"”they are on their way. Nice tank!

I hightly doubt there will be any difference between the two optilon. I would go less whites since they are really strong and ugly.. With just 18 whites in my A6 it's really overpowering. I have to have crank up blues 2x the power to get a blue plus bulb look.
 
I'm also looking to replace my 3 150w hqi with eight 39w t5 fixture with three of the black box 120w with 3w leds. Trying to figure out a color combo. Thought I would check with those with led experience and see if the combo of 15 white and ten blue on one switch with the second switch powering 4 UV and 26 blue? Looking for a great color pop but I don't want Dawn detergent blue. I'd like to find a combo that looks a little more natural at say ten feet deep in the carribean. Just back from diving off Grand Cayman and I LOVE the color at that depth around the reefs.
