Light Shade for Ecotech Marine Radion XR30 G5 PRO or Blue - UNREEF - found this on eBay and had not heard anything about it

any one have experience?
 
Just the diffusers.
I have been trying to fashion a shade of the whole of a T5 hybrid system, and not getting anywhere, thought this may at least help
 
Contact @chemisfun11. He 3D printed mine for Radion XR30. Completely transforms viewing experience.

Contact him - @chemisfun11. I know he has 3D printed many different light shades and has lots of experience. He is a very nice guy and great to work with!
 
great tank too
Thanks and that was 2 years ago when I got the shades. Believe they really help the Acros grow with concentrated light down. Here it is now using those same lightbshades:

For the individual lights (XR30s n my case) yes, but not for the length of the T5 frame. not yet anyway

Thanks for doing the side by side

Did you measure par to see if you lose any light with a shade?
