Just got my new light from Reef Radiance and let me just say this, It is built like a tank, beautiful coloring and my somewhat dead frags are coming right back within 30 mins of turning on. It was well packaged, well built, checked over thoroughly by Reef Radiance in a 23 point inspection of functionality. Had great customer service and am very happy with my purchase! One photo I am posting is my old t8 lights showing the difference. Enjoy all!

Will do on the updates! All of my coral are still frag size so it will be from beggining to colony! My tank is just a standard 55g. Will also post pics of when I get the light hung from a diy conduit hanger I am building.
 
SWEEEEET! Also very impressed with this LED lighting line overall, a LOT of BANG for the buck. Looking forward to your updates.

Cheers, Todd
 
Awesome on the 220! Will be an awesome build! These lights just wow me. I will take some updated photos when I'm back from the holiday huddle and see what things are looking like!
 
Congrats on your purchase! I run the Lumentek 120s and love em! Cant wait to see more pics
 
I've had my 240 for about a little more than a month, and its great! The only problem is that I am starting to get a lot of algae growth. There's so many ways to set the lights and I don't have any idea what percentage of each channel I should set and for how long. Rick has been great with all my questions so far. I just need to get the right settings!! Any one have any ideas or suggestions??
 
Well sorry guys I have forgotten about this thread. So much has happened since original post. My Lum. 240 actually had to be sent back because of a bad controller in it (having some glitches) and I have been waiting a while to get it back. Ended up tearing down my tank due to a upcoming move but I think I will be upgrading to a 150g and maybe snagging another one of these fixtures. Will do a build thread and post progress here as well! Hope you all are enjoying your lights!
 
So this thread is still going here. It has taken me forever and a day to get back in the swing of things but I finally got my light back a month ago. My salty operation has been on hold with a move transition and such but I am setting up a 29g cube in just a week. The "repaired" fixture will be going on a Deep Blue Professional 120g or 150g XH. Does anyone have any experience with them? My local store raves about them and I trust them. Cant wait to put this powerhouse over some coral again. I also noticed Reef Radiance stopped offering this line? Anyone know what that is about?
