can illuminate water up to 12 feet deep and provide sufficient PAR ratings for most photosynthetic cnidaria down 3-4 feet below the surface
Wow, cannon indeed.

The 50 is still a cannon nonetheless though. It has 411 PAR at 24"... Whoa. @Jofiel , you just brought a tank to a knife fight. I wouldn't use that thing on a shallow tank unless you wanted to microwave your corals...You got the 50?
Check the chart in the link you used under specs. There's one for the 150 and the 50
The 50 claims only 1700 par
It's a small cannon
I've never seen PAR info from kessil.
Yea. In my book that a score.
Somody should jump on The other one.
Be a fun expaerent.

Sigh. I guess he'll just have to buy a cube and get some acros.The 50 is still a cannon nonetheless though. It has 411 PAR at 24"... Whoa. @Jofiel , you just brought a tank to a knife fight. I wouldn't use that thing on a shallow tank unless you wanted to microwave your corals...

411 PAR at 24" deep, that is some serious business dude
Im pretty sure most LED's would be lucky to hit triple digits that deep

And a clam
I was totally planning on a cube but then got sucked into the idea of a shallow reef (hate getting wet above the elbows when doing maintenance)! May have to revisit the cube idea...
Whispers (I don't really like acros)
Oh, and she*
Ok, fess up, who bought the white one?

And keep them at the bottom.Sigh. I guess he'll just have to buy a cube and get some acros.

That would be cool. I've not been impress w jbj overall. Only 2 lights but. When you consider I first started with odyssey powere compacts I think that says something.
Acrodind to some good reasercers. They haven't found the photoinhibition point of clams. Some come from the shallowest waters.And keep them at the bottom.

Great point Salty! That would be a fun experiment, essentially testing photoinhibition in clams. Problem is there are so many other variables. Once a person could keep all other variables constant, and just use light for the hypothesis, it would be cool. Of necessity one would also have to have a clam of the same type at every different level of the tank with known PAR levels, but it could be done by someone smarter than me.
