Just ordered 2 OR T247 LEDs for $150 each for my 55g 4ft tank mix reef
Cant wait to get them .

I just ordered 4 too. Plan to put them sideways over my 220. My old it2060s worked well, but the front/back coverage was not that good. Hanging these sideways over my tank should solve that problem.

I'm going to put two white diodes in the blue channels so it isn't completely blue. Then I plan to replace about 6 whites in the white channel with blues. I like a bluer look. Looking forward to the project. I'll run the blue channel for about 10 hours per day and run the white channel about eight hours.

I had a big scare today. Traveling for work right now a got a FedEx notice that the lights were delivered. My girlfriend looked outside and said they were nowhere to be found. I live in downtown Chicago so I figured for sure they were stolen. A couple hours later she called to to tell me they were under the porch. Whew! Smart fedex guy!

I have the ReefBreeder Photon 16 which retails for $319.99. My tank is a 70g tall corner. It's 36" tall and 24x24x30ish around. I would have gone one up to the Photon 24 light but the corners would hang off the side of my tank. For just lighting the tank and fish it does great. It does an ok job at getting to the light to the bottom but I'm only working with softies. Still I notice my corals that are closer to the top do a little better then the ones on the bottom. For this reason I think I'll be in the market for a new tank, one that's not as tall. Depending on the tank I get I will probably use this light and maybe just add another one next to it to cover say a 36-48" long tank. I think with a tank not as tall as mine this light would do great. I would recommend this light for tanks up to 30" if you are doing corals. But I'm just starting out with corals so I don't even know if any of the other lights would do better at 36".

As for the light I couldn't be happier though. The options and abilities of this light is great. You can set the percentages of the whites or blues for every half hour allowing you to do a ramp up and down light system. If you don't want to ramp then they offer even cheaper lights with the same output but without that option. The quality is great so far. I've only had it for just under 3 months. But I can tell it's not just cheap crap.

I won an gen 3 Radion at a club meeting. Didn't even but the raffle tickets because members get two for free. The then both in there and out of all the tickets that get picked...bam! New Radion for my 40.

I recently upgraded to a 75 so I purchased a gen 3 pro from a member here for 525 shipped. At only 6 months old that price was a deal.

Very cool, never seen these. I'm intrigued. Could you post a pic of them suspended above your tank? How would you compare them to MH?
