How many SPS tanks are lit with just LEDs ? Any pics out there .

I saw a 100 watt 15000 K LED Saturday , and I'm still seeing spots in front of my eyes .
 
Whats funny about this is that there are tons of great looking tanks and sps coral pics on here with only led lighting that looks as good or better than any MH/t5. But, every time these post come up you have guys that have MH/t5 saying how bad these corals/tanks look under leds when they are clearly and easily as nice as anything else. I mean seriously, go through some pics on here that are not TOTM worthy that are using mh/t5, which is by far the majority, they look horrible yet get raving reviews?!?!?

But, for me, I have used both and wont go back to MH/t5. Which coincidently is what most, not all, people say after they go led.
 
cell phone pics, hard to get good ones

Travis , the colors look great to me . I am running 250 watt MH Radiums + VHO actinics , and my blues don't look anything near as good as your's .
 
It's not because of the lighting.
Many other factors involved, but Radiums + actinic are about unbeatable for blue coloration.

ALK, Intensity (250watt?) Temp, and most importantly nutrient levels all play a role.

Nice looking corals though in those pics, and LED stuff is nice where tanks are not too deep and you can afford the cost of the fixtures.
