    I doubt it. I saw one today on a 55 and it was pretty dark compared to his CF lit tank.
    He is also building a 150 with 2 of them in the hood and is having to put in t5s to make up the difference.

    I do not think LED lighting has come a long enough to be on the level of T5 HO lights yet. Marineland apparatus I have and I love, but is only used for Airplants moss balls.

    Does anyone use this LED fixture? I'm curious about the quality of the product.
