Hello all. I am trying to take advantage of some of the sales going on right now but I am undecided on the Phillips coral care Gen2 versus ATI Straton.
My tank set up is an in-wall 405 gallon reef savvy tank that measures 120 inches wide by 28 inches front to back in 24 inches high. Tank is a mixed reef in the truest form with everything from zoanthids and leathers to SPS.
Fish room has dedicated AC and a dehumidifier, so I’m not concerned with the fixtures holding up to the elements. I am also not overly concerned with power consumption or heat generated by the fixtures.
my primary concern is functionality and appropriate light spread. Ideally I would only like to use for fixtures as the tank has a 12”-wide glass center brace, so a fifth fixture would produce a visible difference in the tank.
I will be going from radium bulbs on electronic ballasts to LED. I am currently supplementing with reefbright XO strips and can leave them or remove them.
