The LEDs, so far...

Installed,  opted to install them to the lid after most,  not all of the optics were removed from the fixtures.
No disco effect at all,  approx 4 " from the waterline.



Still going to install retro 2 bulb T5 system,  but I am very happy with the look and results this far off my Chinese leds.

I will keep you all updated as I know everyone is hungry for a review,  an unbiased review!  Cause these lights were soooo cheap I don't have to live them.. Lol.

Also my first impressions of the leds... I am only running blue channel at  40-50 percent, white at 25 percent and I already like the color.  The tank appears clearer as the  t5's made the water look cloudy,  if that makes any sense.
Also I am so happy to have shimmer back!  I missed that the most.

There is a little bit of shadowing for sure,  but I'll fix that up with the t5 supplement! 

Now to watch coral health...

Looks great!  I found that the T5 supplements really helped solve the shadowing issue in my tank.  Undersides that were previously going pale have now coloured up again.

Digging these lights so far. ..  When I get around to adding 2x t5's,  is going to be awesome!  Coral plus will round out the spectrum and from what I've read be a solid lighting system

But yes for sure,  I dig the angle brackets,  quick and easy!  The lid is a little cumbersome now...  But it was the best option
