I just bought one of these for my 40g Breeder. So far I like it, I'm not use to LED completely yet.. Just started stocking my tank, currently just have some GSP and a Hammer Head as far as corals go, I'm currently running it at 60/40...but from what I have read , most people have had good luck with this fixture.
 
Tons of really successful tanks out there using this light. Some of the better looking sps tanks even. I couldn't get anything to grow under then though so I sold mine.
 
I'll let you know when I get home one thing I can say is important is how long you run the white Channel it took me a very long time to dial in the lights to where I wanted them to be.

I run two over my 75 gallon mixed reef. Currently run them at 60% full spectrum and 100% blues. They are 13 inches from the water. I love them. I have no issues growing sps!
 
I used to have a bunch of them, nice light. Went back to T5 and couldn't be happier. Nothing against OR, T5 just grows sps so much better for me.

For the above post, one isn't enough over a 40b. Look into getting another, you'll be happy.
 
have 3 on my 6' 150 gal--- decided to get away from MH since I couldn't get phoenix bulbs-
i am running them @ 90 blue, 30 white- no issues for 2 +yrs

Running 5 over my 8'. 95+ channel 1 and 17-19% channel 2.

These are made by Evergrow, and the newest module they make (aka RB Photon V2) is looking good with all the controllability. These are the better made CBB for sure and I grow sps good, but not nearly as fast as I would like. I used to run T5, but haven't in a while.

Overall, I do like them though.

Beautiful tank how do you like the color of your coral now also how many hours are you running through the channels

You know, the colors are pale but I attribute that to too clean of water. My nitrates barely keep at 1.

I run channel 1 from 1400 to 0030, and channel 2 from 1700 to 2200.
 
I'm fully satisfied with mine. Colors are good and growth is good enough. All of my corals are grown from frags under these lights. 90% blue for 11 hours and 60% white for 7 hours. I put two white diodes in each blue channel because I don't like the 100% blue look.

. Hove high you have the lights and size off the tank
 
I got these lights and even with the whites on 1% its way to much white idk if I'm doing something wrong
 
1% or 10%?

I used these a couple of years ago, they go good for the money, ran them at 70/30.
 
I have whites on 1% and it's like the blues arnt even on but when I turn white off it's blue as hell the pic just blue
