Feedback on the new Reefbuilder's Photon-V2

blazedmasta · Nov 26, 2016

Just wanted to know if anybody using these. They have awesome features and an even better warranty. I've been reading forms and comparing charts of par value for weeks now trying to avoid making a bad purchase. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. I guess anything would be better then what I have now but wanted to Venture more into the growing SPS.

Yeah you pretty much have to get them directly from them. Yeah I've ordered one already for a smaller tank and going to test and post results. But it should have tons of potential..

---Update---

This light is awesome!! Some people had concerns about this shimmer, it really depends on the water movement on the top bit under normal conditions looks good. All the corals seems to really like the change. Full polyp extension. Programming was a breeze. This light is super powerful. Since changing I've noticed new head on all my acans that was on the substrate. All zoas are all fully open since upgrading. If anybody was wondering if this light could grow sps. I would confirm this won't been an issue. All my sps are starting to color up nicely and notice seriously new growth and I'm only at 55% intensity.

Looking into getting a par meter and will update soon.
