So I switched to t5's

Looks good

You cant beat the coverage of t5s

I saw some dude on R2r with this light rack, and was assured that it could hold the weight. So I pulled the trigger

I like the coverage I'm getting with this light and the corals seem to be responding nicely to it. Time will tell

 

[Trio91]

the kessil is nice and worked but with that cone shape it left dark spots in the tank

I may use it for a frag tank I'm planning to start up again

Was thinking about subbing another atinic for the coral plus but I like the white look

 

[Mrx7899x]

Atinic will help with the fluorescence

I always ran 3 blue plus and 1 purple plus or 2 coral plus and 2 blue plus but I like the look of more blue light.

I like the way yours looks

I had a purple plus on here in place of the atinic bulb but it looked too purple for my taste.

But yea I like the way this looks too

What light rack are you using? I miss my T5 lights. It would be great to use it again

Brightsky
Brightsky 24" 36" 48" Aquarium Light Suspension System Tank Bracket Hanging Kit | eBay

I got it $20 cheaper on amazon

looks good man. Let me know how the growth compare to running the Kessil.

thanks! My unit came with removable legs and I don't think there are areas to attach tethers. i'll have to figure out if it's possible to suspend it.

I can tell you, this particular kit is solid. I would recommend it

I would add a Blue+ bulb in, maybe in place of the actinic. Gives great color pop and has a nice strong par as well.

my mistake, it's actually a "blue plus" bulb. But definitely will look to keep this color combo when it comes time to replace

If you noticed those silver bolts in the fixture, I went and replaced both ballasts with some ATI's from BRS 2x24W or 2x39W T5 High-Output Ballast - ATI . They were alot smaller and didn't fit into the existing holes, so i just poked some new ones in and bolted them down.
