Hello R2R

[MichaelP121579]

I'm not new here, but I cant get any answers to some questions. Lol so I come in this room. I currently am running a Redsea Reefer 425xl and I got dino's, I decided to just downsize tank to a JBJ 45 AIO. I'm running Orphek V4 Gen2 Compacts now, planning on using one on the 45 JBJ. Thoughts? Also I will.have some stuff for sale from break down this week.

Sorry, I think I missed your question(s)? Was it "thoughts"?

 

[MichaelP121579]

If the Orphek will be too much light for the JBJ

 

[BighohoReef]

If the question is on the lights I agree, you should swap for something less intense for your 45. Unless you plan on hanging it a little higher.

I plan on having it 16" above water. I could just sell the pair with gateway and do something else, I just like them.

That should be more than fine,16' is pretty high depending on what kind of tank (SPS, mixed) you're running. I'm a big fan of Orphek so I'd say keep them (though that's my bias) I've thought about replacing my XR30s for them. I have OR3 Led bar wishing it would dim... hopefully that controller comes soon :)
