LED Reef lighting - Suggestions
Hello all,
I have been trolling this site for quite some time now and finally decided to post as i need your help. I have recently purchased a 72 Gallon Oceanic bowfront with canopy that my current MH fixture will not fit under (its currently f/s). I am looking for a 48" LED fixture (for size / heat reasons) that would be able to grow some of the lower light SPS that wont break the bank. I have been looking on ebay / online and it has only made things more difficult. If you can please provide me with names / links and where i can purchase them that would be great. Fixtures that come with legs would be even better. Thank you for your time! |
Reefbrite Leds are awsome and will grow sps. I think oceanic corals and maybe aqua valley sell them. Look on the vendoirs fourm under oceanic for prices.

www.eshinesystem.com $250 for the CREE 250 watt units. But you would need at least 2.

where are the prices on the website? do these leds get shipped from china? what about a warranty would you have to ship it back to china?

I believe they have released another unit that adds 2x t5 bulbs but I do not know the price or output par of those units. They may be using Bridgelux leds in place of Cree ones in that setup but you would have to contact them to be sure. |

I ordered 19 lights through a group order. They arrive tomorrow. I'll let you know how they turn out.

I'll take before and after pics so you can compare MH lighting to the LED.
According to my power meter, my MH lights cost 21 cents per hour to run. I'll let you know what the LED lights use for power. |
