Mike, ever since seeing your tank a few mths ago and could not stop thinking about these lights. It was a no brainer.

It will be interesting to see the changes in coloration.
I almost didn't to be honest... There was another Mitras on sale here on Canreef a couple weeks ago... I wanted another one for the centre of the tank... Haven't heard back from the seller.... Did me a huge favor. just 7 days in and I am noticing a few positive changes already.

Rich, thank you for your support! I'm looking forward to your new build soon and next time you come over to the island don't forget to bring your clippers.

One week update: noticing more new colors that had been washed out under the LEDs. The red planet in the middle had generally been a slow grower... Not anymore. The same can be said for the shortcake and the blue tenius.

not saying colors change, however lock at this video, and you see what only the bulb will do for you (just some interesting comparison)
