Re: (New) Current Satellite Freshwater LED+ Fixture (6500K/RGB)???

I honestly think you'll be happier with the initial investment of two Sat+. Color will look better. And, as mentioned earlier, a single remote will operate both fixtures in unison.

Re: (New) Current Satellite Freshwater LED+ Fixture (6500K/RGB)???

We all love nature right, creating balanced eco systems? That's why most of us like planted aquariums? Yes? What about our own eco system and not having to toss mercury filled T5's in the landfills...

I never heard of a Radion (Gen2) until now. Just looked it up... man that thing looks like a beast with a nice price tag to boot :) At least its full spectrum.

Let's see a picture :) If it's having little affect using a single fixture, is there room on top to add a second one? I'm using two and its makes a substantial difference like a single t5ho versus a...

Re: (New) Current Satellite Freshwater LED+ Fixture (6500K/RGB)???

IMO, we're not too far off topic. Lighting and ferts work in concert with each other. I'd like to know if your plants start showing improvement under the Current Sat LED+ with the addition of Excel...

Re: (New) Current Satellite Freshwater LED+ Fixture (6500K/RGB)???

Yeah it sounds harsh because it is. Excel is no exception. Both have to be used with the same precaution as you would with let's say, bleach. Anyway... Glut works the same as Excel for a fraction of...

Re: (New) Current Satellite Freshwater LED+ Fixture (6500K/RGB)???

I use Floramax and all my plants grow great in it. It's not very nutrient packed (but has a high CEC) so adding the root tabs under the heavy root feeders (e.g. crypts, swords, etc.) will be...

Re: co2 set up for 5 gallon tank?

With the stock LED on the Edge, you'll be okay with all the plants you mentioned except the DHG. You'll need to do a light mod to get more lighting. You'll be okay using Excel or Glut in lieu of co2.

Re: (New) Current Satellite Freshwater LED+ Fixture (6500K/RGB)???

Thanks for the link and review. I skimmed over the read, but when you compared it to the finnex, was that the Fugeray or Ray 2?

Re: (New) Current Satellite Freshwater LED+ Fixture (6500K/RGB)???

Thanks Zack. Well given the PAR mentioned earlier in this thread, and the height of your tank (60P?), I'm certain you'll need two of these fixtures or supplement it with additional lighting somehow....
