Kessil reef tank

[Peppe]

if I use 3 a360x and two 48 ”reefbrite LED bars would I have enough light? or do you always need 4 a360x?

I’m doing 2 360x and 1 ap9x on a 60” tank to start. The reason I went with the 1 ap9x is because it can control the 360s with out additional controller.
once set up I’ll check the par and decide where to go from there. Tank won’t be done till June or July.

guys 2 kessil a360x are equal to 1 kessil ap9x? have the same LEDs and the same amount of light emitted and the same par?

Yes technically.

 

[Peppe]

what do you think about my second question?

As long as there isn't a center brace blocking light it'll work. You can always add another later.

That's personal opinion. If you like shimmer. Kessil

do you think I can get the same colors and the same growth as with the Radion g5 blue?

 

[VanDalsenReef]

Yes

do you think I can get the same colors and the same growth as with the Radion g5 blue?

It's all personal opinion at that point. I was never a fan of ecotech products but I know a ton of people who swear by their lights and pumps etc.
