Maxspect RSX first impression

[Ludders]

I've just ordered an RSX200 for my new build, but won't get to use it until the new year. I see BRS hung theirs at 10", so I bought the hanging kit too.
Be interested in knowing peoples schedules who have had these units up and running for a while.

I have mine haging at 10 inches as well over the redsea 350 (75 gal equivent). Used to be at 12 inches but i like the look better at 10. Growth on frags is good but its only been setup for 4 months.

Hi! I am planning to buy RS-200 for my 48inch 90gallon tank. is it a viable option in 2024? or should i purchase 2 Maxspect jump L165?

Bumping,
I have had the RS-200 for over three years. I run all channels on 100% power as I like my reef to look natural and not too blue.

Hi ! I have a 150w on my tank (30x18x18) mixed tank with Sps on the top of the rocks (4” under the surface). The rsx is above 8 above the surface. I run a program 60/75/75/15 for 8h, and 2h of high and down. I use Photone to check the PAR the app give me 300 near the SPS. Does that sound reasonable to you? I read that you were over 90% for channels B and C just with the legs and as I am higher….

Hellou guys, I'm a newbie in this hobby, my setup currently has 2 Maxspect RSX 200W fixtures (was only meant to be 1 but ordered 2 by mistake). Tank is ~90G - 120x53x55cm.

Does anyone know what would be a good lighting config for my setup?

These are the available channels:

And this is what's in the tank:

Corals

• Zoanthids (various)
• Green Star Polyps (GSP)
• Kenya Tree Coral
• Galaxea Fascicularis (Ultra Neon Orange)

Fish

• 2 × baby clownfish
• 1 × blue tang (juvenile)
• 1 × blue/yellowtail damsel
• 1 × yellow watchman goby

Shrimp

Crabs

• 7 × blue-leg hermit crabs
• 1 × emerald crab

Snails

Thanks a lot!!!
