Anyone use these lights, and any feedback from them? Everything I've read says they are good, and work well.
 
I have the 165W Phlizon from Amazon. It's pretty good for the money. It doesn't actually have the 4 UV LEDs as advertised though, the entire blue channel is 470nm. My corals grew alright but a lot of them, especially my Acans, lost some of their color.

I have since modified the light to include LEDs in the 365-450nm range. My corals have regained all their color within 2 weeks of doing this mod!

thanks for the info. I’ll try them out, and if I don’t get the spectrum I need, I’ll upgrade. Already spent two grand on everything else, and that’s getting it at wholesale cost, I couldn’t afford to drop 3k just in lighting. Radions are expensive!
