250 watt REEFSTAR

TNTREEF · 12/04/2007, 10:22 PM

Can I please see some tank pics with the 250w REEFSTAR pendants?

I might get some but, I want to see what potential they might have.

Thanks,

Any one have these or are they really that bad?

They are good units. I have seen one at at LFS. They give better overall spred than SLS. Better tank coverage.

I had one, DE 250 watt ReefStar...excellent fixture. I had it over a 3' 58 gallon tank as the only light. Worked good with only slight shadowing on the ends of the tank.

I had 2 also. They are ok. I dont think the hammered reflector is the best design

Better overall spread and better tank coverage than what SLS reflector? Reef Optix 3? Lumenmax 3? Both?
