Following this one too. I have a RedSea that I haven't set up just yet. Interested to know as well.

I use 2 of them. According to my Seneye I was getting 500 PAR at the water surface. I also have a couple of 48W T5 Actinics and new growth on the browned out Acros that I rescued from the LFS are showing good colour. I also see new growth on a skeleton of a Blue Staghorn that RTN'd within 2 days of me getting it. the one polyp that I could see, plus another that I couldn't see are now dime sized, so I am happy with them. I only have a Reefer 350 as my main. I am also seeing a lot of green around the mouth of my Bowerbanki that is halfway down.

When I use my Blacklight at night, fluorescence levels were better with the REEFLED 90's but are even better now I have the T5s as well. Although I would need to confirm that yellow fluorescence from my Bowerbankii was healthy.

Thanks for sharing all! I will chime in too. Had my RL90s since August last year. Not running any other lights since I am mostly LPS. Here is how it looks at 60% blues / 23% whites. Taken with orange filter.

Been trying to achieve better coloration on torches by ramping the lights. Target is 80% blues and 30% whites. I have noticed my Aussie gold is slightly golder and tips of dragon soul getting tiny bits of color. Also my supposedly all red / purple acan is now showing some yellows and green. Pretty cool. I does reef energy AB+ daily too.

Will get PAR levels later, but when I was at 50/20 blues and whites, I was getting 100-130 at the sand bed. Top of rock was around 150-180, so great penetration and spread.

I recently caught a 50 gallon LPS tank with two 50s over it and was impressed. Color looked great, control was simple but well thought out, they looked nice over the tank and no disco effects on the sand. The shimmer was somewhat muted but still nice. Good value to boot. I haven't seen the 90s but I suspect they are just a brighter version of the 50s.
