Reef Radiance led light..OMG..What a light....

[zwulfke]

Can the fact I have the whites at 60 peak melt my zoas ??

 

[luxauterna]

If it is anything like my tank, everything would melt with whites at 60

I have the LumenTek Pro180 and my coral growth has been insane!! Example.
Was given the frag of birds nest at a swap on 4/21/14

Today after 16wks.

No growth issues here!

Proof's in the pudding. Beautiful !

Spoke with Rick today and he sent me my tracking number.
Very excited to see the new 165p light & programing out !

I tell ya. My green zoas are loving the high par i am set to... so are some of my solar fusion zoas. Killer orange. I'm at 70 blue and 40 white.

Hiss, it's a sweet light. I think you will be happy with it

 

[427HISS]

I know I will, and take a few pics when mounted. (I also bought the tank mount)

 

[NanaReefer]

Love this mounting kit!

Hi Nana ,

What are your whites and blues set at .How many hours white vs blues ?

 

[NanaReefer]

Whites are 25%max, 10min ramping up/down for 5hrs. Blues are 50%max 10min ramping up/down for 8hrs. Lunars start when W/B off @40%max ramping up/down 10min for 5hrs.

So my lights are on from 9:10a.m to 5:10p.m Lunars from 5:00p.m till 10:00
Blues start the day at 9:10 to 5:10
Whites start at 9:30 to 2:30

I've chosen this way of running them because they are very powerful lights and all my corals came from being under T5HO's for 3yrs. So far I've burned nothing, and they are all doing quiet well.
My tank is all LPS and 1 SPS.

 

[NanaReefer]

Update: Turned my whites back down to 20% max. Blues to 55% max. Awww much better

I know I am jumping in the middle of things here. Is anyone using their Lumentek 240 on a big tank like a 120-150? I am picking up a 48x24x30 and wanted to see if anyone else had tried doing this with the 240! Let me know please.

 

[Bow]

I'm using 2 on a 6' 125

 

[Bow]

Could raise one up and turn it up.

 

[Hlmarlowe]

Yeah that would be great coverage but I am going to have a 4' tank. Wanted to hear from the folks with similar dimension tanks as the 48x24x24 or 48x24x30

 

[Hlmarlowe]

I also want to make sure it can hit a 30" water depth being 15" off the tank as well.

 

[Chetrod]

Just ordered mine 3 DM165M's can't wait.

I ordered my lights on 9/18/14 been trying to get ahold of someone over at reef radiance. Has any one heard from Rick and crew. Getting worried since I haven't heard anything from anyone on my order. I received email confirmation of order received and payment to them received. That's it.

 

[Bow]

I was talking with rick today. I don't know anything about your lights specifically but I know they had just shipped a bunch of stuff out. If you send him a message make sure you use your real name. I know he gets a lot of messages on here and just has their screen name which doesn't really help him. But if you ordered from him you will get it. Out of curiosity what one did you order?

 

[427HISS]

I should receive my 165p with the controller on Friday !
Thanks Rick !

Did he by chance mention anything about the lumentek controller replacements? Haven't heard or seen any progress on this and do not want this to just fade away

 

[Bow]

He did not say anything about those. It was just a quick heads up that the 165p' should be getting to people soon and asking if I was still up to assisting with questions about them.
