You'll need about 15-18 just for your actinics, and probably the same amount of white LEDs if you want to light the entire tank (that's to get a 14k...
Currently we have 3 lenses that will fit the XP-E LEDs (35, 50 and 55 degrees). If you'd like lenses you'll need to order them separately on the...
If you're only going to have 12 for the entire tank then you'll probably want to go with a wide angle (80, or as wide as you can get). Since they're...
Would these just be a supplement or your main source of lighting?
Sorry, no plans for a sale on the PAR bulbs as of right now because we just ended a pre-sale on those about ten days ago.
Using optics definitely will increase your PAR readings, but optics aren't necessary for all tanks. As Seano and Jay mentioned the narrower the lens...
Hello everyone, I'd like to announce a sale on our new actinic kits exclusively for 3Reef members! From now until Sunday please enjoy 10% off any...
Sorry, they're 110V only.
These bulbs are typically used over smaller tanks (though there's no reason why they wouldn't work over a larger tank) so for a 75 gallon tank we...
Here are a couple pictures of our new PAR38 bulb. Note that the regular blue LED is in the center of the bulb, with royal blue along the outside....
I do have two pics on hand that I can share. I'll start a new thread in our forum.
Hey Matt, Sorry, not yet. We haven't shipped any of these new units yet so it'll be another week or two before we get some pics back. Mike
For a 40g breeder I'd go with 5-6, using 80 degree optics. If you want a kit instead I'd start with the 36 LED kits.
Hi Everyone, Just wanted to let you all know that we're running a promotion on our new PAR38 bulb. It looks identical to the old bulbs but the...
Interesting, thanks for the info. We've asked CREE as well previously and have always been told that they don't make UV LEDs, so I was curious as to...
Do you have an order code for them? I wasn't aware that CREE made any LEDs with such low nm wavelengths.
Haha good question, these are pretty new so I haven't seen any builds with them yet. Be sure to send over some pics when you get yours!
Not a problem at all, make sure you're comfortable with everything before you pull the trigger.
