180 gallon Lighting

[whixley101]

I have a standard 180 Gallon Reef that have had AI Vega over it four three years now. I am now noticing my PAR values decreasing slowly. I am looking to get a new LED lighting rig and up for recommendations of folks who have had their lighting units for over a year.

Any advice or input is much appreciated.

AI Hydra is a very good, very colorful unit.

I'm really curious, how much is your PAR falling off?

I've had 2 OceanRevive/EverGrow OR-IT2080 over my 180g sps& lps tank for 13 months now and the corals are healthy and growing just as good as they did when I had 1000w of MH and 160w of t5 over the tank. I do an 8 hour sunrise, 1 hour of midday at 80% and 40% and then an 8 hour sunset. I have a PAR meter and haven't seen any change in the PAR at all (but PAR meters are so sensitive it's hard to be really accurate).

I've been running Radions over my 180 for two years and am happy with them.
