Default led

the light pollution is the spread outwards from the leds which spills outside your tank.with the amount of leds on the unit a tighter spread(60 degree) would not give a spotlight effect,and put more light into the tank itself.the par is reduced as the tank gets deeper.cree is the brightest for leds.it is a good upgrade,but other people have used vhos successfully.

Shane, spend the money on a vertex illumina. They are 30% off right now and you won't be disappointed. LED's are worth what you pay for them don't cheap out on them. If price is a major factor stick with T5 your corals will thank you.
