    FTS when I was running the Nova Extreme Pro 6 x 54 watt 48" T5s.

    FTS of the new Sunpower I switched over too 6 x 54 watt 48" T5 fixture. Really hard to get a clean FTS pic, its so bright the camera tends to blur a bit.

    from the images Travis45
    it certainly seems brighter to me and it also seems to have increased the intensity of both red and green colored corals

    Definitely, the intensity has really picked up in the tank brightness. I also still have the fixture 12 inches above the tank, slowly lowering it down so I dont bleach or fade any of them out. I want to reach around 8 to 10 inches above the tank, I started this process at 16 inches above the tank. Slowly reaching my goal....
