As "pioneering" as people think the AP700 is in terms of LED technology, at the end of the day, it is still point source LED lighting... only 2 pucks per fixture. Coverage may be great but shadowing is still inevitable. Mind you, I consider coverage and shadowing to be two very different and mutually exclusive things. It speaks volumes about this issue when you see the BRS 160 tank using 2 Kessil AP700 fixtures but still requiring T5 supplementation to overcome the shadowing effects inherent in the puck style LED fixtures.
Actually BRS's recent video on LEDs highlighted the AP700s ability to reduce shadows compared to others.
