Maxspect Razor

[loganlemaster]

Im running a 160 watt 27" razor over my 36x18x12 rimless tank. Its 12 inchess above the water. Tallest rock in my display is 5-6 inches. Im keeping some sps but not sure if im underlighting them. Im running an 8 hour photoperiod 2hr ramp up 4hr at 10w 30b 2hr ramp down. For those of you with experience with this light does this seem reasonable. My sps isnt browning, but i also dont want to fry it. Any thoughts or suggestions would be awesome. Thanks.

I would definitely turn it up a notch or two...

I run my 10k Kelvin Razor on a 32x24x20 tank at 75% white and 90-100% blue for 8.5 hours/day (not including ramp-up and down) and my corals like it so far (was running a bit lower during acclimation). I have it about 6-8 inches from the water surface.

I think i will try increasing slowly each week. Thanks

I also run 2 T5's

 

[meshwheel]

whats the reasoning behind running the 2 T5's? For better spread?

The tank just turned 1-year old this weekend and most of those corals have been in the tank for 6-10 months. Here's a FTS:

How did you acclimate??

Thanks tigrtraps. I haven't bought Razor yet. I just noticed that 300W version came out and here in europe its price equivalent to 2x120W.

Thus I will most likely go directly to 300W. It is of course overkill to my tank but I can always run it on lower % and that would hopefully give leds some extra lifetime as well. And if I ever get bigger tank I will have enough illumination to that too.

Love the maxspect razor profile, love the light rack that Sps coral store made for me.

What are your razor settings and how high are they off the water?
