Reef Bass
colors and textures
I am moving at a glacial pace getting my 120 going. On the bright side, tank is sitting on a terrific and wonderfully supportive stand that Grant built while I played Igor ("Hump? What hump?"). It still needs to be skinned and topped.
As far as lighting for my new tank goes, I am succumbing to the siren like appeal of smaller electrical bills as I switch from MH to LED. Good bye Tier 3!
Make no mistake about it, I hold the quality of MH light for corals in high regard. It also photographs beautifully and accurately with proper technique.
I am currently planning to use 48" Reef Breeders Photon V2s.
While they are not inexpensive, I like the form factor, the number of LED colors and bulbs / emitters, their positioning and spread, as well as the app based control of each color's channel. Plus I have seen decent results with acros growing under them in person.
Before I pull the trigger, I would appreciate hearing if anyone believes there is a better alternative, and why that may be the case.
Thank you.
