Current USA LED Strips?

[kangadrew]

I'm looking at the Current USA LED Strips on amazon (http://www.amazon.com/TrueLumen-12-...755&sr=8-3&keywords=current+usa+truelumen+pro), and they seem pretty good for my Fluval Spec V that will be a reef soon, after being a betta tank. However my question is are they good as they seem? What corals would they work for? It needs to at least work for zoanthids, if not softies, LPS, and even SPS (probably not though). If these won't work, can someone recommend something that would work better for close to the same price? Thanks!

I would suggest lights that can be programmed.

I had the Current-Marine Orbit lights on a Fluval Spec V and I had to keep them at 30-40% of full output. I've since moved them to a 10 gallon and even on that tank I keep them between 50-80%.

If you are just looking for some light, it's OK. But if you are looking for light that will help grow coral, see how many watts the strip uses and divid by the number of leds in the strip. My guess is it will be less than 0,5 watts/led and that will NOT help with corals!
