Hey Sahin,
Thanks for posting the video again, super! I also appreciate that you want to custumise a light profile. I'm gone a send you a PB... I put my thouths on topic... Just got a call from my retailer, the beast arrived... It's the 8 x 54W with 3 x 75 W led. I did a bukb change back in January... so I want to use my 'old' bulbs for a while... I can start with dimming from the start ;-) These is my light set up till now: (back to front) Aqua Medic Reef Blue AM Reef white 10K Giesemann Pure Atinic AM Reef white 10K AM Reef Blue Giesemann Aqua Bleu Giesemann Aqua Pink Gieseman Atinic + AM 15K AM Reef blue The left side of our tankt is fild with mosstly red corals, so I think about to light it with a little more red... the right side I have al couple of small ricordea colonies mayby some more fluoricent effect... I promice to put some 'makeover' pic in this topic. Kind regards, Peter |

ATI Support told me to turn the plug 180 degrees. That seems to have resolved the issue. I am surprised no one else has experienced this, oh well. |

Hi Sahin,
This is a little off topic, but I've decided to go a different direction for my propagation/grow out tank. It will be 48"x24"x24", and I was hoping to get a recommendation on which Sunpower fixture you'd use for SPS. The cost is just too high for the Powermodule. I was thinking either the 48" 8x54w or 8x80w. Also, which bulbs would you recommend? Thanks! |

Lets add some colour to this page. This ATI T5/LED Powermodule is an awesome light. Judge for yourself:
EDIT: I still have many brown SPS; this is due to my Alk dropping to 4.5dKH 3 times in the past few months! ![]() FTS taken by my buddy on his phone: Top down shots I took a few hours ago: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Hey Sahin, I know I asked this question in your build thread but maybe this is a better place to ask..
I'm curious to know if the LEDs in these fixture really play a role in colouring up the corals or if they are simply for aesthetics. Any 8 bulb t5 fixture (in the right reefer's hands) has the potential to make any and all sps look like jewels. Do you really think that the LEDs make the sps look better, or do they really just give the tank that mh look by creating brightness and shimmer?

Good question Matt...
I am new to LED but i think in this fixure LED play very small roll in coloring up SPS corals in particular more of a shimmer effect.. I might be wrong ![]()

Anyone knows the exact weight of 8x24 bulb fixture. I made a custom light rack done which attaches to my custom made stand. I took the light out of box today and it feels darn heavy like atleast 30lbs if not more . Anyone knows the exact weight bc I don't hve a weighing scale to figure
