Also, how about a fugeray 36" for those ultra-popular 12L rimless

I'd like white moonlights with a built-in photo-cell in the fixture that automatically turns on when it's dark or when the main lights go off. It eliminates the need for a physical switch/separate timer.

I enjoy my moonlights, but hardly ever get around to all the tanks to switch them on.

Thanks for the input! They're already in production though. I will keep you idea for future models. Do you mind the automatic blue lights if they induce algea growth?

Yes please. Ray II 36'' hopefully. And keep the fixture with no moon light, not a fan of it.

Do you guys ever think about making clamp on high output LEDs?
36'' perhaps

Hey there. Well the moonlights can be turned off . And yes, we are highly considering a 3' fixture. I've noticed a good amount of 3' tanks but very shallow. Not sure if we'd go RAY II or FugeRAY in that size.

And sorry, no clamp plans. New tooling would cost too much

I thought Ray2 does not have any moonlight? Only FugeRay that does have moonlight. Guess I'm wrong.

These 12 Gallon long aquarium are about 9"H. So if the fixture is about 2" thick, it would be 11" from LED to bare bottom tank.

i.e Ray2,
My substrate is 1 1/2" thick so it would be 9 1/2" between Light and Substrate.
so I'm just eyeballing from your website it would be 100-110 PAR?
(Sorry I can't read 3D chart)

You are correct, only the FugeRay has the small moonlight LEDs.

And for the Ray 2 with regards to your particular set up, you're looking at around the PAR you listed .

The 18" model looks promising, are there plans for just a 7000k light? Am I able to turn off a row of 10K or Ace. lights?

Cheers.

Any plans for 30" models? FugeRay or Ray II?

So the 24 inch Ray II is approximately PAR equivalent to a single T5HO with a reasonable reflector? Trying to figure out if this unit would be sufficient for growing HC carpet in my 60P. edit -- seems slightly less. Any plans on doing an actual grow light unit for high light needs?

We may do a full 7000k in the future. ATM both 7000k/10000k must be on at the same time.

Sorry there, a 3' and 4' will most likely be up next.

How deep is a 60P and where did you read these are comparable to a single HO T5 if you don't mind me asking?

My question to you is:

-How important are blue moonlights to you?
-Is a row of 7100k & 10000k LEDs acceptable to you plant heads? We feel the combo of 10k puts off a more pleasing tone without sacrificing too much useful light.

Not interested in Moon light at all.

Yes, 7100: & 10K would work.


- I'd like to see all future LED systems offer with a Dimable capability. That would offer us options for Low & High light planted tanks. Also, the option for mid day peak levels.

Hey there. Long time no talk, how's that tank build you mentioned at the SWAP in Feb?

As for dimmable LEDS, let me speak to our manufacturer to see how much of a price increase those units of RAY II would incur.

60p is 14 inches deep. I was looking at the 3D chart and was having trouble reading it. Still, any plans on a higher intensity version?
