ok Triton method setup

[jcl123]

Wow thanks for the info, my new system will be set up in the first part of next year. Can't wait to look more at all this info you sent but time to work now thanks

Sure, I am also looking at the H80, because that has both UVA and NIR, I am just wondering if the intensity is enough.

Check out RapidLED before you buy... they sell cheaper yet more complete kits with the same COB led. https://www.rapidled.com/cree-cxb3590-100w-led-grow-kit/

Yes, I looked at them, they seem good as well but I really like the build quality at Timber.

I was hoping to be able to build something that had UVA with RapidLED , but the lowest they go is 390nm.

Right, sorry, what I meant was that I was going to use the H80 because it has uv and ir. But I wouldn't use it by itself, I am thinking together with the COBs, so I get the full spectrum.

I am not sure what they were thinking with a 15w light..... Maybe nano's? They certainly aren't fooling around with the H1200.

Sure, I see your build thread.

Here is mine: http://www.bostonreefers.org/forums/index.php?threads/new-135-high-tech-build-in-arlington.158488/

I changed direction like 4 times though before I arrived at Triton.

Yeah, that is what I was thinking too. I was looking at that Gyre... I went with Tunze.

I tried a gyre on my current tank, I love the flow, no dead spots I will maybe buy 1 more for the 90. And I will most likely get a bigger rerun pump to. My overflow should do 2700 gallons an hour
