We need flashing white lasers built into our aquarium lighting hoods. The 56K spectrum, moving, flashing laser would simulate the golden lensing sunlight we see on the shallow reefs the corals love so much.

Kessil does this without the laser lol
 
Lasers are not visible to the human eye except where they strike and are dispersed or meet particles like fog.
Also lasers don't come in white because Lazers are single frequency.
Lol

Check out a Maxspect it's actually too much shimmer for my preferences. Looks fake. My mh was nicer
Lol.
 
I have checked out Maxspect. There are no lights out by any manufacturers that come close to sunlight. My MH HQI's are better than any LED's I seen.
LOL
Have you snorkeled and notice the intense beams of light shimmering on the corals? The sunlight is magnified intensely.
A lot of manufacturers think their LED's produce shimmer like the sun.
 
Kessil doesnt do a lazer thing no, but they are as "point source" to as lazer as youll get causing the ripple effect. With actual lazers youll blind fish.

Yea. Its hard to out do the sun:(
From a lighting camera movie POV you have to use on huge source and many smaller. ten 150w MHs over a tank would look awsome. If we did it on a stage it would be 20 18,000k arc's
