Definitely interesting technology though the color leaves something to be desired (very yellow) - though Sfiligoi seems to have taken everything into account by adding t5's (good thinking )

Heres a link to show the potential of Plasma (specifically the seashine units being compared in the pic above)

FYI - NOT MY TANK

I "borrowed" some of the pics and posted them here for discussion purposes

FTS (Lights are 16 inches above the tank and tank is 20 inches deep)


lights at 50%


lights at full power


Interesting how the spectrum changes significantly at different power levels.

Anyone know how efficient these lights are? Is there a chance for this technology to make its way to budget reefers ever or will this always be a "posh" technology?

from the reading I have been doing they output more Lumin/watt than LEDs so very efficient. would be nice to see how much the bare bones of the system will cost for people wanting to retrofit there own fixtures.

How does the par compare with metal halides?

Here is a shot of a single Vision Plasma alongside a Sfiligoi Infinity XR6 equipped with 2x250w MH and 4x54w T5. Pretty impressive.

its to bad they take first place for the uglyest fixture you can buy.

what are the T5's in there? are they actinics?
