ATI Straton LED Light - Comments, Review, PAR, Coverage, Discuss...

[Karliefish]

I have a 60”x30”x24” high tank... do I need three Straton or will two be sufficient? I put in an order for two, as it is more economical... but it seems you could fit three.

two will work just fine - if you feel later that you want more light you can always add a kessil in-between.

I have 4 stratons above my tank for allmost 3 months, 100% coverage and I LOVE them!
Evenly spread light and in my eyes no disco at all.
Tank is 200x80x70

Grtz,

Looks great - what is your mounting height? Did you do your own custom light program or use the SPS Default one from ATI? Congrats on such a beautiful tank!

 

[Karliefish]

Would one light cover a 36” x 36” tank?

yes, as long as your not placing SPS's on the edges

How does the light look visually compared to T5s? Is it bright or is it similar to the dim look that LEDs generally have?

 

[Oldreefer44]

Anecdotally speaking, I have mine on the mixed reef setting and would call them "very bright" and more similar to t5's than other lights I have had (I believe) largely because of the diffuser they have.

Hello! I have now gotten and had my local fish store help me install three stratons over my 150cm tank. I really enjoy the spread and the colour, it is a bit more blue in the pictures than in real life.

I am running it at 65% on LPS/SPS and will observe how the corals respond.

 

[nornicle]

any suggestions on schedule? i have it on lps/sps at max 65% and fading to fluorescent blue by 11:30pm.

Saw this on a DE youtube account. Some brackets that seem to be tailor made for these fixtures are being used along with a master beam running the length of the tank..

If you look on the german page, it looks like a new release from the last few months, it is made up of a few parts but here is one of the items which is a custom sized length (that half cylinder you see above):

You rock. The brackets are their own thing, could easily 80/20 something with those now!

@ATI North America can you assist me on ordering a rail and mounts for 4 lights? I’ll even pay for it and do a review on it lol

Is it possible to hang the Straton on an Ecotech rail setup?

Hi all, This is a wonderful tread, i have 2 stratons myself but no par meter. So this is awesome. I do have question regarding par and the different presettings. my Front pannel is set to LPS and the middle and back are set to sps/lps. I was wondering how much par do i get when using the LPS setting at 100% and at 60%. In my hello thread i posted my current settings and pictures of my tank. I sincerely hope someone will help me find the answer so that i can use the right intensity per setting. THANKS!

I did that at first, should be a photo somewhere in this thread. You really need a way to hard mount the lights to the rail. I found some 1/2 aluminum c channel you could mount to the somehow

No surprises at all, I’m still ramping the lights. Sps has been coloring up nice since under these lights-

How are those corals looking ?
