And to all others,

I just ordered 4 Mitras 6100 HV!!! ….can’t wait to have them!

Why 6100? I’m European, we don’t like supernatural blue!
...just teasing you! LOL

His whole story is strange at least! In the EU you can order where ever you wish it doesn't matter. It's like in the US, if you order something from NY while living in Alaska. Just sipping costs will wary. And it's about you to find a shop fitting your needs, by searching the Internet with customer reviews in minde.

Just looking over some pics of my tank, pre mitras, and how it looks now, I can honestly say, I didn't realise what a transformation it's gone through since I bought the mitras lamps, judge for yourself guys.

Please bear in mind, my photography skills are pants and these pics are all taken on my iPad, the first pic is pre mitras and the last pic is today.

If I wanted to complain I would of done exactly that, but that was never my intention. I only explained myself when requested to. If you go back and read I never ever came here complaining about my issues only answered a reply and explaining why, when requested to.

anyway thanks Michael for clarifying everything and all you help, its been excellent.

much appreciated

and back to the topic,

@GazzMan

nice lights and nice tank

GazzMan thank you for taking the time to post these pictures. That's picture proof of how amazing these lights really are. The best part is it's just going to get better and better in your tank.

I like the fts using a wide angle lens.
Gives the tank a very wide open feel.

I want to know coverage MITRAS led lamp, because I need to cover the aquarium?

Hi
The coverage is about 36x32, the controller is built in and hooks up any PC using the free GHL control Center software, in the future the Mitras will hook up to the GHL ProfiLux controller but not apex

6000 or 6100?

Hi Guys,

Sorry to bother you guys with a freshwater question but this is kind of urgent!

I finally bought a Mitras 6000 for a freshwater project but the supplier is insisting that they will send me a 6100 instead.

Should I really be bothered by this? I know some people made a fuss over the differences between the 6100HV and the 6200 but this is different. I want a product for freshwater planted and they want to send a marine light.

However, on the other hand it's just a difference in the ratio of royal blue to neutral white LEDs so maybe the software can be relied on to make the colour output and intensity I want regardless of whether its a 6000 or 6100 model.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

P

Ok, contact GHL directly at sales@ghl-kl.de and explain your situation because if you want a LX6000 you should get a LX6000

Thanks for your help. Hopefully, it's just a case of a confused intern!
