Yes. They just won't dim to 0.

Great, I read the last posts that 1 controller will work with multiple lights, but someone tried and it didn't work for 3 lights. I have two over my tank, with 1 controller will this program both?

check the pwm connection between the black cable and the pwm connector on the bluefish.

I used this tutorial with 3 Oceanrevive t247's. Using the Bluefish Controller with 6 Channels.
Just follow the diagram above and plug them in separately. 3 Individually programmable lights.
Plus I have a powerbar plugged into my Apex to control the on off cycle of the lights. So everything is remote controlled on a tablet.

Can you show a diagram of how you got 3 to work. I am about to buy 2 T247b and would like to make them both dimming with one BF.

Yeah, it's right at the beginning of this thread. I used the bluefish with 6 channels. For you it's two for each light.
