Orphek iCon full spectrum moon cycle
& microbiology

Our experiments revealed a number of patterns .

1. Bacteria that decompose fish waste (carbon) use phosphates and nitrates to build their skeletons.

They are controlled by the light, and when the light is turned off for 1.5 hours, there is an increase in oxygen in the water by 1-2 units. This is because the bacteria are no longer able to use the light to photosynthesize, and so they switch to using oxygen instead.

2. When the light was turned off, the bacteria released oxygen and began their 8-hour period of nocturnal activity.

3. At night, bacteria produce materials for zooplankton's skeletons (Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate), also known as sea sugar, which is the main component of the skeletons of all planktonic flagellates.

4. The moon's cycle is a series of commands to bacteria, with some bacteria performing one task during the day and others performing a different task at night. The cycle of their 8-hour work launches a spectrum specific to each bacterium. A command of 1.5 hours is sufficient in the form of a glow with a certain spectrum.

Amazona 960 icon sporting halide type shimmer!

Customised spectrums available, this one is as follows:
  • LED 1: 18000K XP – REEF DAY LIGHT – WIDE FULL SPECTRUM – from true UV 380nm – 700nm – for SPS/LPS/Soft coral growth, color and illumination.
  • LED 2: Blue – 450 – 460nm – These wavelengths are important in zooxanthellae photosynthesis – chlorophylls a and c2 utilize blue
  • LED 3: Blue Plus XP – Blue /Violet/UV – 400 – 500nm – for SPS/LPS/Soft coral growth and wide fluorescent coral “pop”.
  • LED 4: 18000K White – This channel will give you the natural color of half way between sunrise and sunset. This is a very clear, bright spectrum.

This is indeed an intriguing approach to consider the €/Watt ratio. However, it's crucial to first account for the power supply's power factor. Orphek utilizes a power supply with a power factor of 0.97. In contrast, a power supply with a power factor of 0.55 will consume twice as many watts. Thus, the €/Watt ratio will be affected accordingly. For instance, the Orphek power supply consumes 62 watts, whereas another power supply with a power factor of 0.55 might consume approximately 120W. The output may be identical, but your electricity bill will be twice as high. Therefore, one of the most critical factors to examine prior to purchasing an LED light is the power factor.

In relation to OR3 lightbars

This is very useful, now we can see clearly the cover it 30cm / 12 inch wide. If you install 2 unit near each other there is PAR share and the number get much higher.
