Still loving my Evergrow LED's

Your corals look really happy under the LEDs! It's a atypical of many (but certainly not all) LED lit reefs where SPS growth is thin, scraggly, with die-off in shadowed areas. Sorry but it's true for most LED tanks. I do admit there are more and more successful SPS tanks coming from LED lit reefs, though. Yours is a great example of that.

Can you post a picture of the fixture placement of the aquarium? I've often suspected part of the issue with LEDs is too much power/duration as well as too much concentration of light from a single point. I've seen more successful tanks with lots of LEDs spread out over the footprint of the aquarium than those that have smaller high-power fixtures.
