I purchased the Dice 12 nano cube tank and from Maxspect and it comes with the Maxspect MJ-L130. I cannot find any data or reviews on this light. Can anyone help me out? it seems sufficient to light a 12 gallon tank however without the data I am not sure. The tank will coral and some softies.
 
I was actually wondering the same. Looks like it could be a pretty interesting light for a nano or shallow tank.
 
Any new news on this light? I’m thinking about it for my Evo 13.5 coral quarantine tank.
 
I like the light, but absolutely hate the ap. I've got one on a 29 gallon QT tank.
 
I ended up going with the MJ-L165 because I wanted the APP capabilities. Measured PAR in the tank and got this for my readings on a 12 gallon Dice Nano Cube.

LPS Target Readings: 200-350 PAR
54% UV,Blue, Royal Blue 26% Warm White 24% Green and Red.

SPS/Softy Target Readings: 75-150 PAR
28% UV,Blue, Royal Blue 14% Warm White 14% Green and Red.

These PAR numbers reflect peak time of 4 hours. I ramped them up and down to have longer light.
This is my first go at this so we will see.

So you didn’t try the 130 and this is all data on the 165? I think I’m going to pick one up and try it on my 13.5 and if it isn’t good enough for the coral quarantine I’ll just move it to my fish quarantine cube.

Yeah I did not pick up the ML-L130. I assume you would just have to almost double the percentages to reach my numbers considering it is half the wattage. the app controls are very nice on the MJ-L165. I was able to get one here for $165 shipped.
