Finnex Marine SE 247 LED Lights

[Michael Rossi]

I purchased these lights with the intent to upgrade them once the tank was established for a year so I could start a true mixed reef tank. In the meantime though, I’ve been picking up small frags of hardier softies here and there. Besides the zoas I accidentally bleached when attempting a fresh water dip, everything seems healthy and doing good.

My question is, would adding a second light fixture (same one) allow for some additional softies and LPS corals? I still plan on upgrading down the road and the wife doesn’t like the mounting of the black boxes on the market. So until I can save the money to do the lights the “right way” I’m wondering if this would be a short term fix.

I do not know this fixture but general speaking - two fixtures of one type will give the double amount of photons at each level of the aquarium compared with one of them. You will double up your lights.
