Here's the first tank shot. It's pretty purple right now, I haven't messed with the settings too much yet. I know the customized color scheme i did is leaning towards purple though. The optics were logans' idea. and thank god he did it, because w/o the 120 on the edge the fixture would have to be like 20" above the tank.
the blues are currently @ 20, and the Whites are currently @ 20. is this ok?

Nice looking led set up, I have a question; why you have optics only in the center of the fixture and non on the side, 12 optic lines on the center and non on the 6 remaining lines of led

Too spread the light over a 4' tank

What optics you use for the center 90 or 120

My tank is a corner bow front 100gal. 36 diameter by 25" deep, not sure if I will be good with the 32" strait or 2 - 16" side to side

2 16" would allow for more flexibility with coverage, most users with that size tank go with the 32" fixture.

Not trying to knock LEDs but I didnt see one SPS dominated tank. Most of the pictures where LPS and softies with some small SPS sticks. Nothing to make me swith over from Halids. Your thoughts?

Check out the testimonials section of our site, there are a couple sps dominant tanks there. I have never had a problem growing sps with LEDs.

these look great and I love the large LED spread over the fixture. I haven't heard anything about fan noise. How noticeable is it on a quite tank?
