Lighting for fluval 32.5

[Mr Vince]

I am just finishing my new hood, which mounts 3 Orphek OR3 60 LED bars. I tested them and the difference between how the corals looked under the Fluval lights (I had two) and the Orphek’s is significant. The second photo is the old lights. The top is the new lights, just turned up 25% with no adjustments.

No. I built a hood that is mounted atop the tank

Im considering a kraken reef one they're just a bit pricey.

I have one and they are great. I used to have a fluval and under the stock lighting the coral grows very slow. I had prob 2-3 polyps of zoa in like 6 months
