Who uses Reef Radiance?

[rs1831]

I'm looking into the lumentek pro lights and would appreciate some feedback.

Thanks in advance!

I have a lumentek-pro 240 and I love it so far. Wish I could tell you how it grows corals but.... I haven't gotten that far yet! Lol

What PAR on this light

 

[rs1831]

NanaReefer, nice looking set up! What size tank?

I have the Pro-180, I just got about 6 corals and running the light 12 inches off the water. I have not had any growth from my corals that i can tell. I'm running the lights on a 30% white 50% blues max sch. I do like the lights just have not had the corals long enough to see growth i guess. Setting this light fixture is really easy. Just a waiting game for now.

Mstanker, have your corals kept their color?

I have had my dm132e for over a year. Love it. Grows zoas and lps. Wonderfully. Heck it was awesome as a fuge. Lite too. I added a pair of china leds to it and hate them because of light spillage. I am now getting a lumentek 240. Can't wait till next weekend.... checkbmy build threads.

Yes they have, I do like this light

 

[rs1831]

Thanks for the responses. I really like what everyone has to say about the lights and at the price they sell for it is really hard to consider going to radions.

If you want wireless control color chanel control go with hydra 52 or radion

I have the dme155e, this is my first reef tank but it seems to work well. I'm run it about 12 inches above the tank at roughly 75% which I guess might be a bit high? In a few months my Zoa's have really taken off, frogspawn sits high up and split and is doing great, armor of god palys tripled.

My gonipora died off and xenia at the bottom of the tank did too.

Any updates on how tanks are doing? Any luck with acans in them?

 

[pickupman66]

I may have toasted my Acans.... ran the light at 60% blue, 40% white with the ramp schedule on the spreadsheet. 12 hour cycle.
