Not sure if they are the same, but I had a couple of the ecoxotic blue 12" strips that I wasn't very happy with.
Checkout reefbreeders leds.

I had 2 of the new panorama pro 12k whites and one RBG module all also 12" but I will say for the size & wattage and even the price they are very good. Now they are not quit as good as the company claims but compared to the true lumen pro LED strips which I had one that was all 453nm blue and the other was a 12k/453nm blue mix or "fusion" as its called they blow them out of he water hands down for price and how much light they give off.
I also have a 90 gal reef with 2 blue reef 120watt LED systems that had 14k white and blue & none of the ecoxotic strips are as good as one of those but they also cost $349 now $499 each whe I bought them. I then also have a 125 gal with just 3 20watt LED spotlight style in 14k for a total of 60watts and I have sps growing fine under them.

One last thing I had a 55 gal frag tank that I had a corallife 48" fixture for 2 150watt DE metal halides, which I then swapped for 3 ecoxotic pro modules 2 12k whites & 1 RGB and I also had a 36" marine fusion true lumen pro LED strip & a 24" blue true lumen pro. Now my sps frags were barely hanging on but were loosing color but it was pretty close to the MH's so hope that helps.
 

DO YOU THINK TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCEMENTS ARE MORE HELPFUL OR HURTFUL TO REEFING?
