Reefbrites or another strip led for a 6x39 ati

[Reefs anonymous]

Help me decide! I'm. Looking to add some type of LED strip light. Is there some other LED that's comparable to reef brites? I'm seriously considering adding 2 strip led lights to my ati 6x 39 t5s. I'm currently using 4 blue plus, 1 atinic and 1 purple plus. I'm kinda on the fence for the atinic reef brites Xho or atinic reef brites tech lights. My tank is shallow at 17". Should I go with 2 RB tech and balance on the ATI 6x39, or 1 RB XHO's, or is there a new strip light in missing out on? I would like to pop the colors on my sps corals. Thx

I have no experience with Reefbrites but I do with RapidLED actinic strips. They are DIY and you can customize them the way you like. I too have a shallow tank 48x24x16. I have two 36" on front and back. They are great lights and mine are solder less.

, does the rapid leds look like a finished product or does it look like it should be kept under a hood? My tank is in my formal living room and the mrs will have a heart attack if it looks like a mess! Lol

I have the reef brites on my ati 36x6 definitely go with something polished because the atis are so nice!

I used to run reefbrites with a 6x39 Sunpower. Great combo IMO!

For those of you using reefbrites, are they the XHO or the lower power technlights and how many are you running? Thx

To me yes it looks like a finished product, I guess my only issue would be the wires to the power supply then to the outlet. The new heat sinks they have are nice. Depending the size they offer a few different colors. They are also enclosed on both ends. I hope this helps.
