Anemones under LED?

[AlvaradoL]

Has anyone kept Anemones under LED lighting?
if so for how long?
and what LED fixture? Thanks!

Oh and if you have pictures that would be good too! :]

Yup, have RBTA and rainbow bta. Made the switch to LEDs in october, I've noticed the bulbs are back now. Switched from 2x400w MH to 2x chinese evo lights 20000K everything looks good so far

Any more people?

2 BTAs for me too. Had them for almost 2 months now. I'm using the 120 watt / 20k Evolutions.

Did you notice any color change under the LEDs?

I got a couple of RBTA under AI light. One is darker than the other, maybe due to one of them being closer to the light.

My RBTA has picked up a little more green base color, but not a drastic color shift.

under my DIY LEDs I have two, one rainbow nem and one RBTA.


Photos to come!

 

[AlvaradoL]

Oh so colors improved? No negative effects?

None at all, now dont think that all LEDs are the same. Its like saying water from lake michigan is just as tasty as water from aquafina. My SPS have benefited the most from the transition

Depends on what LEDs you get.

Hahaha that is funny!!! I agree it definintely depends on the LED system you go with...not all are created equal in terms of quality!

What do you think of Aqua Illuminations?

Good quality units, but $$ I built mine for less and mine out performs it. Check out my threads in my sig.

My BTA hid all the time with my MH now with LEDS it has it bulbs back and it out more then ever.

As Fire said all LEDS are different we both went DIY and they outperform any other fixture out there. Plus spend less money :)

The AI is the same as our 24 XP-E Kit with slight differences in optics and driver. The LEDs are the same except we use the D316 Royal Blue for the best colour pop.

Both my Red Carpets are doing great under LEDs

 

[AlvaradoL]

I was thinking of doing a T5 LED Hybrid.
Running an ATI purple plus T5 in the front and back of the LEDS.

Wow wild your carpets are looking absolutely gorgeous man!! It's a monster...did you get it that big or has it grown??

The first one I waited over a year for and its a little bigger after 18 months. I fell into the other few weeks back. Not a single LFS wanted it from my wholesaler so it was not a hard choice to take it off his hands.

I only feed them a small piece of fish them a week.
