Absolutely love ours. We have 3 on our 75, and 2 on our 40 breeder. Excellent growth so far!
I just ordered mine I'm waiting on them now. How do you like them so far?

Also, any advice or concerns that you could share.

Love them. Our 75 has had excellent growth. I think I had the levels on the 40 too high though. We've had a HUGE hair algae outbreak, so much to where we had to remove the corals from the tank.

I have turned the intensity down quite a bit to see if it helps. The 75, blues are on 100, whites on 40, red and green I finally turned off just because.

Excellent colors and adjustment!
 
@Aparker2005 Would love to see what the controls in the phone app look like. Can one of you who own this light post some screen shots and explain how the app works?
 
Thank you for the feedback. I have a reefer 250. Getting away from the stock tus.
 
I believe you can download the loop app from current and try it out even without having a light?
