Hey guys!

Currently running an Orbit Marine 36" LED strip, as well as an AquaticLife EDGE 36". Am I running risks by having both on the tank? The schedules are identical, and they fit nicely together on top. Keeping an eye on water temp and the like. Seems like a healthy amount of light to the eye, but I just want to sure I'm not wandering down a destructive path.

Excited to hear your thoughts!!

Here are the specs on the lights. Can barely find any info on PAR levels.

AquaticLife EDGE 36"
(21) 6K White, (21) 9K White, (24) 10K White, (7) Blue, (11) Red, (3) Blue Lunar LED`s

Orbit Marine 36" LED
72 Dual Daylight/72 Dual Actinic LEDs, 144 LEDs Total



 
Dont' think those LEDs are gonna bother anything. Not enough light for corals in my estimation.
The Orbits is only 36 watts and the other uses only 48watts
I'd not use any LED for corals that doesn't at least use 1watt LEDs in their unit.
