I picked up an LED fixture from Exotic LED and it's burning my corals. I had it 6" above a 60g cube (24"^3). I placed it about 12" above the water and turned one of the white and one of the actynics off and everything quit spitting out it's zooxanthellae.
I've read about polyp extension...wow, I didn't believe it could be that much different.
Brief description: We broke down the 125, put some live rock in the cube, let it set for a week or two with a PC light and skimmer running. It's been a couple of weeks since we moved the fish and what was left from the devistation from aptaisa and neglect (because what the slime disease didn't kill the aptaisia did). Good news is I had a brown acro and thought it just grew a lot but I think one of them is my Bonsai because it's coloring back up...yay!
I guess I'll run it for about 6 hours a day half way on and see how things adjust. The web site says it's equivilant to a 400w MH...right [smilie=wink.gif] Well, I'm a believer now.
I've got a little more to do to the light bar but I think it's just going to be temporary till the 90g is cycled. I don't like having 5 frag racks crowede around the sides but it's keeping everything going for now.
