Thinking of adding reefbrites to Tek Elite

Chac317 · Nov 19, 2017

As title states, I’m thinking of picking up two reefbrite strips while the holiday sales are happening. My tank is only 18” deep so I was leaning towards the tech model, don’t think I would need the xho. I know the reefbrites can be mounted directly to the ATI fixtures but I was curious if anybody with a tech elite fixture had them. Do they attach the same way? I’d hate to buy them and not have a way to attach them.

Also, I have 3 blue plus and 3 coral plus bulbs, along with two Biotek B5 actinic led tubes (8 bulb fixture). If I added the RBs would I be better off going 4 blue plus and 4 coral plus and ditching the led tubes? Open to suggestions if anyone has similar experiences.

If you look at the spec's they come with brackets to mount to a fixture or you can buy mounting legs or hanging brackets. The tech should be fine as a paired to your t5 blubs.

I know they have the brackets my concern was with the screw holes on the tek fixture. From what I’ve read the brackets just screw into the ATIs but I wasn’t sure if the screw holes line up on the tek.
