Latest LED info

Hello,

OK, I see a boat load of info regarding lighting all over the place, but I do not see anything that is recent (2017). *I am sure it is out there, but I can't find it. *I have the following:

150g reef
3 - Radion XR30W G3 Pro
Mixed reef (Soft, LPS & SPS)

What/where is the latest greatest info regarding everything lighting (spectrum, PAR, etc.)

Thanks,

Don

That's a really big question, and could write a couple of paragraphs of what I think makes sense. But I'm not sure all that much has changed in the last few years. Why do you think PAR and spectrum info is out of date? And I think a lot of info you'll get here is the 'latest greatest' opinions, not scientific data.And those opinions will still be "all over the place".

You might get much better answers if you asked a specific question about PAR, or spectrum, or light cycle... whatever. Besides, you already have expensive fixtures that have lots of features, what exactly are you looking for?

Ron is all over this. The newer models are newer for sure, but probably not of much difference in the end.

What specific problems are you looking to solve?
