Fugeray praise and questions

monkeyfish · 10-18-2012, 12:26 AM

First of all, this light is awesome! One fixture gives great coverage front to back on my 90g. It should be just right for my low light low tech setup, and the light it puts out is such a nice color, my fish and plants look amazing.
My questions: Can I place it directly on my glass tops, or do I need to use the legs for heat dissipation?
Anyone know if it will work with the dim4 sunrise controller?

We need to have a Finnex fan club around here!

I have mine directly on the glass with no issues, added little stick on rubber feet to keep it from moving

Lowe has said on other posts that both the Fugeray and RayII are not dimmable, or I would have been all over the RayII!

Thank you for answering both of my questions. I'm going to take the legs off when I get home. Dimmable would have been the icing on the cake, but I can't complain. Affordable, powerful leds right out of the box, what more can you ask for. Maybe I'll diy a fixture just for sunrise/sunset/moonlight. Or not. Depends how much $ it would cost me. Now what to do with my coralife fixtures....maybe one under the stand, and the other over my workbench.

I'm in for a fan club, I'm sure these will gain popularity as time goes on.
