Finally joined the bandwagon!!!

so here is my new toy. 2 ecotech radion to replace my 4 AI sol blue's

so far i am loving them except for a few bugs that need to be fixed by ecotech.
but the most annoying thing for me is: I NEED A FREAKING COMPUTER/LAPTOP TO MAKE ANY CHANGES TO THGE LIGHTING PROGRAM!!!!
why didn't ecotech thought of including a controller like AI did with the sol? for a $500+ light they should have at least fixed the bugs on the program, the program hangs, one fixture doesn't respond, and some more
but over all i am happy with the many possibilities this fixture can do. most people will say way overprice!!! i say it's worth every penny and cheaper than the AI for i used to use 4 AI compared to 2 radion to cover my 90g sps dominated tank.


this is what i started with


less than a year later, this:


and now , this:





now, when is the vega due to come out?;D;D;D;D;D;D;D;D;D

 

Looking good.

Notice any big color difference or coral reaction after switching?

 

What are you going to do with your sols?

 

can't tell yet. i am still acclimating them to the new lights. only been running 2 days

 

sold 3 of them and still have one left.

 

That is a big difference in the lighting. Welcome to 3reef as well.

 

Yeah the software can be a little glitchy but the new program that came out what a week and a half ago is SO much better!

I love mine and I was laying on the couch with my wife watching the tank I think ill go 20k and 18k instead of 18k and 14k (still using presets but why not!)

I use a netbook to upload new programming so not having a controller is no big deal. Im interested on how your corals react because the radion get superior par from 6"-24 inches away from the light but for that 6" circle AI sols have twice the par.
