So, my reefbrite xho 48" just arrived and i took a few pics with it temporarily mounted to show the difference with just one of these strip lights added (took the pics with my phone so they are not perfect... but passable). Let me know what you think. I should have some better quality pics tomorrow as the night fts would not turn out with my phone cam.

I am suprised you were able to take pics of the led's. I can't decent quality pics with them on. Reefbrites are awsome little fixtures.

just picked up a 50/50 reefbrite strip, 48". it is one seriously sick light. can't imagine what the xho's would look like. i want to eventually move away from T5s and go all led just from seeing the results i got from this one strip.

My wife doesn't like looking at the tank with the T5's on anymore. she only wants the Reefbrite XHO actinic. It looks like a painting. You did a really good job capturing it with the LED on. I found it very difficult.

ya, i really like the look... and pics were surprisingly hard to get anything useable (using my phone). But once i borrowed my friends Cannon SLR it was much easier to get the pictures to turn out.

I posted a thread/review on the Reefbrite XHO here. There's a few pics of my tank comparing the look with and without :

love the shots of your tank and how it looks under the blues... that is part of what inspired me to do the 50/50 shots showing the difference with/without the LEDS.
