I would suggest reaching out to them to find out what they would suggest for a custom mix. Let them know what you're looking for and that you're worried about the 490nm in the Sky Blue. They'll probably come up with a mix of 410, 430,460. They're currently building me a 4 foot that's 12 each of 430, 460, and 480nm (not 490nm) to mix with a Reef Day Light that already has quite a few 410nm.So I'm looking to add two OR sky blues to my 150 gal. I run halides so I am not worried about spectrum just adding pop to the tank and dusk and dawn.
The UV seems way too purple, pops nicely the colors but I can see it becoming annoying to the eyes after a while.
Has anyone purchased the blue sky and can share feedback on how it performs? Do the cyan leds "brighten" too much the look or help corals pop further? I was almost inclined to replace the cyan by all blue leds, or add UVs with blues but nobody seems to have any feedback.
This. I was sharing graphs from this site while discussing LED mixes.Use the generic diodes w/ this:

adding 6 410's for 460's

Sky blue as is:

Not much different..
So what color do you want?
Well, thankfully member Arch85, owner of Reef Bazaar was kind enough to do a video showcasing the strips, showing their coloration and giving a nice review for all of us.
These lights are indeed really nice and spectrum wise, should be awesome as well. Im ordering two sky blue 48’s.
Will try posting his video so others can also have a better idea of how they are.

Hi,
Looking into buying this LED bars for some shallow coral propagation tanks(30 cm water depth). Anyone tried them out yet?
BTW, love that on/off button Funny thing now when we've had those super programable LEDs for a couple of years, the thing we miss is an on/off button.

I've been running the sky blues for a few days now. Very happy with them, give me a nice pop without the artificial look of some LEDs. The fixture is slim and puts out a lot of light.
I have mine raised about 10" along my halides and the blending of very good.
I do notice that if I lower them the color separation of the LEDs become more evident. That is the case with most LEDs anyways.
I'm very pleased with it so far.
Here is a current pic of the tank with LEDs only
I actually didn't have to make any mods to the spectra itself. I used a dremel to mod the brackets that come with the strip and attached them to the existing screw from the spectra.Do you have any pictures of how you’ve mounted them to your spectra? Thanks
