8w Innovative Marine Skkye lights...what will they support
Hey all, I am setting up my new 16g Innovative Marine Nuvo aquarium. Already completed the leak test, and my live rock from Tampa Bay Saltwater should arrive on Thursday. The tank's dimensions are 24"L x 13"T x 12"D. It comes with two 8w LED lights which have six white 1W LED bulbs and four small blue moon LEDs. I have ordered a third light to go over the tank so in all I will have 18 1W white LEDs with 12 small moonlights. I'm just wondering what cna be supported under these lights. Softies but do you think the lights will be strong enough to supprt some LPS? Doubt they would support any SPS myself but I wasn't planning on keeping any in this tank anyway. I'd just like to possibly have some acans maybe some duncans. You think these corals would be okay in this lighting? Thanks!

I wish Innovative sold the tanks without their light. Only the 30g + sizes come without a light.
I've seen the lights in person, very white, very little of the moon lights show through. The WavePoint clamp LED fixtures are alittle brighter. And under the Wavepoints I know you can keep most softies, GSP really seems to like the Wavepoint's blue spectrum. |
