i ordered the 3 watt leds...i believe it the 700ma if thats what you mean
You need two timers as stated, one for white channel and one for the blue channel. I wouldn't run any light system more than 9-10 hours lights on. Remember the animals we keep need that natural cycle of daylight hours and darkness hours.
As far as algae issues, test for P04, reduce photo period and increase nutrient export. Use GFO for P04.
i believe i read it on there web site that they drive them at like 2.5watts...which is will make them last longer...anyways they are really brite i dont even run them all the way up either...like half way
I just purchased 2 of the 165w. Any suggestions on mounting them on/over my tank?

Nothing rong with the pictures they look great. And i like the colorsSince Ive had mine now for a bit, they ONLY concern I have is the total lack of any 420NM Diodes for UV spectrum.
Otherwise, Its totally fine. I incrementally adjusted mine up to 100% blues 75% whites combined with a 39W KZ Fiji Purple T5 and a 15K 39W red sea T5. Soon to be two ATI blue plus bulbs.
The white channel is VERY yellow when on by itself, much like sunlight in mid day during the summer. The reds aren't noticeable to me but I don't feel like there needs to be 4 of them on the 300W model. Maybe 2 max.
The green diodes are just weird... But again, you'd don't notice them at all.
Overall, my SPS have DEFINITELY brightened up quite a lot, growth is decent (dealing with ALK/CA balance right now).
Aesthetically if you are considering this fixture it is a great choice. I can't comment on PAR yet with my 300W.
Mine is suspended Exactly 7" above the waters surface on a 40gallon breeder, SPS/LPS dominated.
Here are some crappy iPhone pictures, colors are brighter in real life. For some reason the phone takes these darker pictures:
