Ok I'm a little confused still, what are the benefits with going 2:1 ratio blue to white vs 1:1? Also what is the difference between 1G, 2G and 3G Evolution models other than the look?

Thanks,

Corey

The 2:1 looks more blue to our eyes, to the corals I dont think it makes a huge differemce, the acroporas and blue clams look better under the 14K but everything else looks better under 20K typically.
When PAR testing the 14K and 20K are identical

A little birdie told me evo will launch 4 fully dimmable unit's by MACNA

roughly the same prices as the current non dimmable

with 2 blue in them, royal and the regular 460 nm blue in the current models...........ok i've leaked too much already!~! Haha

Hey guys one other thing, how many hours a day do you run your lights? Also what is a good time for them to turn on and off?

Thanks

Corey

I have my blue come on at 2 and go off at 10, and the whites come on at 3 and go off at 9.....total of 8 hrs a day

I take it that is PM right? Also do you run moonlights?

litenyaup · Jul 28, 2011

Yes pm. I do have moon lights...2 3 watt icecap single led 420 nm and am adding an mlc with blue pods. I have 2 pods now but am wanting to add 4 more.
