I've been keeping an eye on any mention of these lights since I'll be starting up my tank very soon. The more I see of them, the more I want them!

Anyway to mount these on a eurobraced tank? Or in a canopy?

Edit: Also, the tank is 5ftx2ftx2ft. Planning mostly softies/LPS with a few SPS once the system matures. Do you think 5 of these would work or 6?
The mount itself would not work on a euro braced tank but it can be rigged up to be hung in a canopy(you would have to make or buy some type of bracket)
On that tank I would go 6 lights but 5 would be fine till you get a few sps.

I am at hope sick with the Flu but I managed to take some pics of my new dosing method.

So far very stable Alk but will change when I add coral.
I understand this has nothing to do with the lights but we want water quality really stable so we can see how these lights perform.

Hate to hear that, hope you get well soon. I had that crud a few weeks back. I'm one of those fortunate individuals who rarely gets sick and when I do it is usually mild. Not this time, I was down for several days and actually missed work on one of them which has never happened before. Just getting older I guess.

Battling some ugly algae that I believe are diatoms but if they are dinos then I will redo the tank and start over. I will confirm hopefully after I get a microscope in that I ordered.
I have coral waiting to come to the tank but I am not willing to put them in till I have an all clear from the algae guys.
My mom is in the hospital so I am not able to get to the pc and update as much as I want
Please bear with me,

Matt

Following, sorry about all of that.
Thank you, we brought mom home today and she is doing 100% from how she was. I have to keep an eye on her all day and that is fine as I am able to be with her more.
I hope that I can get this tank clear real fast so we can put some coral under these lights.

Tank had been battling dinos as you guys probably know and is now way better and ready to start this study. Once I get some more money together we can start selecting coral
for this test. I am thinking some LPS frags to start and then we shall go for some SPS when we have aged a bit more.
We need to come up with some test variables so please let me know some ideas :)
Here are pics of the tank now after killing many dinos:

any updates ! :)

:)
Been dealing with a sick mother and now things are looking up so I can get some work done on this.
I should be able to get some coral this week end but first I need some cleanup crew to deal with some diatoms that took place of the dreaded dinos that I had.
