Hi all

Its time for new lights on my 300 now i run t5 so its almost time for new bulbs i run two 48 inch (6)bulbs fixtures.i got them off ebay so they are nothing like ati tho i do run ati bulbs just straight on off t 5 fixtures no bells or whistles
Now i was thinking of something like reefbreeders v2 leds or going with a ati fixture so i think my ebay fixtures are a little under powered since i gave a bout 200 a piece for the fixture not sure
I love t5 but read alot of good things on the reefbreeders v2
I keep lps and am just getting in to sps thats what i really want to keep
So give me some advice on which way you would go i bout the cheap fixtures when i was just starting to keep coral now i can go a little bigger and better
Thanks
Ron

I’ve run both reefbreeders and radions by themselves and had god results. I now run the radions with t5’s to supplement them and am very happy with the results. I run the radions for 12 hours with the ab+ program from fusion and the t5’s for 6 hours.
The growth has been great and the tank looks better with the combination.
 
My tank is all LPS. I switched from a 6 bulb ATI 48" fixture to a reefbreeder 48. I really like the adjust ability of the led set up. Also feel I'm getting more consistent results since no bulbs to age.

Reef breeder is more cost effective over the long run.
