Thoughts and opinions on these two lights or other supplementing leds. What is your favorite and why? Homemade or a different brand?

I am looking to supplement a MH or my T5s on my frag tank.


Thank You
 
Use a combo of all 3. MH for growth, T5 for coloration and prevent shading and LED for pop. Reefbrite Xho strips are great, and super easy to install.

Thank you very much for the input. It is going to be hard to use all three with space constariants. But I already have the metal halide picked out and I am going to pick it up next week and I have a T5 Retrofit kit to use. I just need to find the LEDs. I considered going all LED but I really want to try the MH route for growth instead.
 
I am looking for 2 or 3 Ecoxotic Panorama Pro - RBG stunner strips with power cables and controllers. I want to add them to my current tank just for the fun of it but they stopped making them.

If you have 1 or more Ecoxotic Panorama Pro - RBG stunner strips please text or call me. 314-324-4898
Thanks!

So based on what I'm observing on this thread it seems everyone suggests the combination of multiple light types.

I was about to post a similar topic as I start pricing out the cost of building my first 150+ reef. So would people recommend a minimum of combining T5s with LEDs if one wants to avoid the heat from a MH?
 
Don't get the stunner strips ! Horrible they burn out so quickly ! Had multiple now I'm left with LEDs that are out and more keep going out!
 
I also have several panaroma pro strips burn out. I emailed Ecoxotic
And they sent new ones. There were 6 strips replaced. The whole fixture is just under a year old.
 
As far as LEDs as supplementation and added to t5, the standard and imo the best to get are reefbrites. One other I'd consider getting are buildmyled led units.
 
From research and pictures along with threads here I've found that the ReefBrites are the top contender for sups.
 
I just addedb2 more reef brite to my led so i have a total of 4 to supplement my main with more blues.
