Hello,
Okay need help with some thing quick and either I’m tired or I forgot some of my math somewhere. So in light of my tank doing amazing, I have the two 72 inch orbit marine pro equalled out because they have 60 degree lens right. So I was lucky and found a third one, which gets here Thursday. Side note they are discontinued and still 809 dollars wow. Anyway we all know it’s 60 degrees and we have calculate the critical angel deviation by using inverse sine. Because of refraction from air to water changes as density. Most of the time this is done with a 90 degree to a 45 degree in which we find the angle of refraction with the equation I attached (had to write on my laptop, but if memory serves me right, should be written correctly).
So we know the current marine pros produce 60 degree lens, which I assume is at all angles in a 3.14 aka pie. Or am I wrong? For example each led light is one light which produces one ray. In which the lens I’m assuming shatters it into multiples, or does it enhance one direct beam? The light will travel faster through air, and then slow as it hits water and goes deeper.
So in adding my third light, which they are each 2 inches over a 24 inch span. They are strip lights covering 72 inches in which we can also use the FWHM equation right. But since there are three light waves are (well even with two) going to interact with each other.
If I have lost anyone, lol strip lights have less shadowing then puck style leds. Strips are similar to coverage as t5, (just coverage in length). But, how many of our light waves are cancelled out, by the other lights? I’d assume by finding the critical angel of the light each positioned accordingly woukd tell me my refraction rate, and light cancellation. Am I wrong on this or using the wrong equation?
Do they have any idea how much work a 400g tank is to maintain? You will have 2 full time jobs now!!!!
