Howdy, I am Running 3 x 400W 14K BLV's AWSOME I tell you.

Hey MadGerman, welcome to the forum.

What reflectors are you using for the 400w's?

 

[MadGerman]

Howdy it is a Diamond Pendant almost like the lumenarc

 

[Mekaeel]

Welcome to Masa Mad german.i guess these are the single ended you talking about?

 

[MadGerman]

Thanks Mekaeel, Yes it is the single ended ones I have got. I must say though having 1200w over the tank for 6 Hours (at the moment) causes huge temp increase. My chiller is working overtime. but well worth it.

 

[Mekaeel]

how about a pic of your setup?

 

[MadGerman]

Thanks Dude, someday it will look like yours, I want a forest of sticks in there, hence 1200w of light

Have seen some nice local set-ups with Marine-Lux bulbs ..............

Nice crisp white light with a tint of blue. But you do need to boost them with actinics
