That is A LOT of LEDs in a 37" fixture. How deep and long is your tank?

Look for more full spectrum, not just blue and white.
The amnt of LEDs are fine since they are dimmable. You never know what the future holds with your tank plans. Play decide you need more light, and having a fixture that can produce that saves on initial cost. Ask them about custom colors, ie royal blues, different whites, uv, a couple green and reds. Etc |

I have 450 gallon tank I'm setting up and will prolly go with just fish only tank with maybe some really easy corals to go with it. But the problem is the bottom of tank to the light will be 46in high, and I just want a good coverage with no shadows or dull spots.
