Favorite "Black Box LED Light"

[reeferfoxx]

I took a $15 lux meter and put all of it in a clear sandwich bag and submerged it that way to get a lix reading underwater. Not very accurate but gives a round about number.

Your the best foxx.


A $14 meter is Way better than a phone btw because it's a phone and not a meter. Works better faster with fewer inconsistencies and incorrect readings.

If you got bux Milwaukee makes a submersible meter for $75.


Oh. And GO SBREEFLIGHTS!!!!!!!!!

An app?? .... Soooo do you submerge your cell phone underwater to get readings?

I hear the new iphone7 can go underwater, have an upgrade waiting for $30 so I may try it lol

Have any of you tried DSunY black boxes?

 

[InvertEnvy]

I have 2 Galaxyhydros over my 55 gallon mixed reef. I'm getting great growth on all my corals!!! I only payed like $220 from Amazon.

The "box" version they make for "our hobby" turned out to be more of a grow light. Meaning more red and pink spectrum. I wouldn't try it.

Someone is offering me this one:

I haven't been able to find any specs about it other than it is 36" long, 120w, full spectrum, programmable, it is controlled by a box using Turing-2.1 (whatever that means). In theory it is for reef tanks... I even have an invoice from the person who bought it and it does not have a model name or number!

Actually thats the good one. There is a more box style that I was talkin about. There is a memeber here that has the one that you have and they love it. Can't remember who?

@rvamarcel This is the dsuny unit I was talking about. The light you are looking at is similar to the Reef Breeder Photon V2. I still can't find the user that has that light but is a good light!

OK, here is some pics, not good, but they are pics, different tanks. The purple one is dsuny, the blue is mars aqua. The dsuny is the 12" unit. You can see, very purple and blue & red same channel
