I don’t have a recent FTS but here is one from October.

I'm brand new to Reef Brite, but I love mine. Thinking of adding the LED strips, but I'm totally fine the way it is now.

I do think the spread is great, but with a narrow reflector, the spread isn't as good as a larger reflector like a Cayman Sun or a more square, larger reflector.

I'm in no way throwing off on Reef Brite, as I wouldn't get rid of mine for anything. The Reef Brite ballasts are very good too.

Now that I'm 100% MH, I'm going to stock up on about 20 DE bulbs.

Tank is about 2 months old.

I don’t use the twin arc bulbs just a simple MH Reefbrite fixture.

https://www.bulkreefsupply.com/15-de-led-mh-hybrid-pendant-reef-brite.html

I had went thru black box LED’s kessil’s and Ecotech radion gen 3 pro’s on my current tank. As I keep SPS I wanted good lighting. Going thru LED lights I was not happy with the shadowing effects on SPS plus the hot stops made placing the corals complicated. So I talked to old friends at MACNA to see what they think I should do. Tullio said his small 150 watt fixture with the Reefbrite would be the best for me. An I have been very happy with the choice.

I don’t have to worry about lighting and can move on to chemistry and stability.
An it is way cheaper to purchase and I am getting great bulb life with the electronic ballast.
Heat has never need a issue an this is a small tank 40 gallons.
How is this mounted here?
