eshine systems

I've been looking into their 4g lighting systems lately and I'm impressed at the flexibility and great pricing. I have some questions I hope someone on here can help me to decide my lighting layout

Im upgrading to a 210g and I was planning on 3 lights. each section is 24" x 24" x 30". My concern is the layout of leds for coverage. One unit is 24" X 6" with 48 leds, the other is 12" X 12".

Which layout would be best for my tank? Thanks!

Anyone have any advice or opinions??

I have the 24 bulb one over my frag tank and it does put off a great amount of light. Where are you ordering yours from?

it is a great light for the price

Directly from eshine. Im not sure where else to get them. I'm concerned about whether the 48 led is sufficient for an area of 24" X 24" X 30". They have two styles, one is rectangle 21x6 and one is square at 12".

It sort of depends on your aquascape and how much breadth of coverage you will need. If you use the entire tank width to aquascape then the 12x fixtures probably give a better spread. If you keep more open room in the front of the tank, you could probably get by the the narrower bank of LED's.

FYI - they'll customize a fixture for you if you want. You can just tell them what you;re looking for and they'll quote appropriately. I am about to order (today) 2 36x3 watt CREE XPG/XPE fixtures from them. Course I notice on the invoice that the reps name is Peter Pan - which is a bit concerning! Hope I don't send cash out the window!
