ecotech radion led and ur experience with any leds

[skimmerman100]

I have purchased these lights at a steel and was wondering how good they are and ur input or photos would be greatly appreciated I am new to the led and been out of the reef keeping for while but I am a die hard t5 fan and am scared to try led because I hear nothing but bad things about leds when I worked at ocean gallery but my best friends has acan lighting and his tank looks great but he's the only one with success that I have met lmk ur input and pics and what % should I set it at. Should I suplimwnt with a purple power t5 and a blue plus? I want to make mainly sps tank with a few zoa

I run 4 Radion Pro's on my 8' 240g. Acro dominated reef and am very happy with the growth and color. I ran the Gen 1's before upgrading and liked them as well. Go slow with your acclimation and you should be fine.

This video is from shortly after the Pro upgrade and shortly after a near tank crash.

I'm sure others will chime in and tell you how much Radions and LEDs in general suck, but this has not been my experience.

Well I certainly appreciate ur input and know that others have different opinions but I have never heard anything positive about leds but I also know you've been around since PC lights and when I started was about 2005 and u were already here so I know I've done t5 mh and PC and now leds so I am at ease knowing it won't be a mistake going led

I have 3 radion pros on my sps heavy tank and love them. I was a mh guy for 6 years before switching to these and cannot see too much of a difference. My growth is the same and my electrical bill is way down. Will not ever switch back to anything else.
