So do you think it’s worth it? I have an apex already & I’m debating on getting the light for my tank. I really like how everything is integrated. Would you buy one & do you think it’s worth it?

Time will tell I suppose.
but like everything. Let other people try them out and find the bugs

Depends, do you currently own lighting for your tank now?

If so, then I would say no, not worth the cost “just because”.

If not, then I would say maybe; because there is not much info or many reviews yet.

As other have said, it's all situation dependent.

I have one on order for my red sea reefer xl 300. I plan on keeping LPS and love that I can use only one light for the 36" tank. I also didn't have any lighting on hand, so the options were completely open for me. I don't have an apex system, and likely never will have one. Glad it can be used stand alone with bluetooth.

I have one preordered. Not because I "need" it, but because it seems to be a close "brother/sister" to the Phillips coralcare, but I can mount it to my tank (not interested in hanging it). I have had many other lights in the past, and currently I'm pretty happy with my Reefbreeders Photon V2+, BUT, if this looks better over my tank, my inhabitants dig it, and I can easily take pictures now without messing with filters and such, then it might be worth it (to me anyway).

Oh, and I'm not getting rid of the Reefbreeders light right away either....need to see which one I like better first.

So to update. I did get the light & so far I really like it. I have a Red Sea max 130 (34gallon) it had the lights built in the hood I believe they were T5’s? But anyway I wanted to upgrade because I wanted to get the hood of the tank & have a better light. I bought the hanging kit & it was pretty easy to setup. Definitely better than the old lights I have. So far everything is doing great! (Have had it a couple months now)

I’m glad I didn’t listen to all the negative posts from people who didn’t own one. You really have to see it in person to judge for yourself. I love mine. Spectrum is awesome, construction is on par with Radions and integration is a huge plus. I really hope Neptune keeps their promise about firmware updates for it and added features.

How would you compare them now?
