I purchased the 32 inch wifi, it's awesome. The strength is no joke, nearly killed some coral till I got it adjusted. I have an acropora frat that never really grew and stayed a brown color, with in two weeks, it started growing like crazy y and it's turning a bright green color.

How long do the fixtures last?

Long time, they seem pretty well built.

I got a new Ultra 45" a few weeks ago. Man is that thing built solid. Plenty of power.

The tanks look great but it it kinda hard to type on my phone with only one arm. Sitting with one leg is pretty easy though.

Hey are you a par or lux meter owner ? I'd love some numbers off that thing.

 

[Scurvy]

Forgot you were all about coverage!

Forgot you were all about coverage! Might need some shades.

Sorry. I fly by the seat of my pants - lighting wise :eek:

Fyi if you didn't know already according to the ultra teaser, a 72 inch will be out after the first of the year. I messaged Mike(?) To confirm this.

There must be 101 different types of SB out there.Now call me cynical but if I wanted to discredit something I would choose the worse one I could find out there to highlight the potential issues with it. So if you are going to do a REAL test you would check out a number of different builds. That would give it more credence to a review. Apart from aesthetics with the case, the inners can be a totally different proposition and therefore build quality. They say never judge a book by the cover. My first SBs were of a good build quality with a proper heatsink shielded cables and decent quality drivers etc as confirmed by 2 separate electricians on a well known UK forum some years back. A self-proclaimed aquarium lighting expert who had a vested interest tried and failed miserably to rubbish them. Strangely he never came back after being proved wrong on all counts and not just build but their ability to grow SPS with colour.

My modded Mars Aquas to mimic the SB layout are growing everything in my tank very well. SPS, LPS and some softies. Very happy with them now over one year.
