AH!!! Yea, those will work, but man what a waste of wattage, ya don't need anything that high, but they will work if you can dim them. I would think using them without dimmers would burn up any coral you have.

We use the RGB to achieve any color you want. Augmenting RGB with Primary Grow LEDs has worked out quite well.

Your primary grow LEDs are the Royal Blue and Violet LEDs. These have a wavelength shorter than the Blue.

Your corals will be better off if you give them what they are used to. Although you may have a lot of light it may not be the correct spectrum.

380W of LEDs? How big is the tank?
That seems like ALOT of power.
How are things going with the lights you currently have?
