Is it possible to wire a dimmer between an orphek bar and driver? If so, could it reduce the life expectancy on the diodes?

It’s doable if you can measure the voltage of the driver and the amperage draw of the light bar

  • Very important, but one or two fish may be enough

    Votes: 4 14.8%

  • Optional... a coral-only reef can feel completely finished

    Votes: 0 0.0%

  • I actually prefer a coral-and-invertebrate-only system

    Votes: 0 0.0%

  • It depends on the tank’s size, style, or purpose
