    I don't understand why all those reds are lumped together in the middle...

    It is a bit odd. It will be interesting to see if there's any color banding due to that.

    Your picture is also off in count. There are only 7 Reds and 9 465nm + the 4 465nm's I assume are separately switched.

    Yeah, that was a but odd that he posted that and then disappeared. I'm getting excited to get it though testing may be a but hard at first. They couldn't get the wide optics adapted for it yet, so I'm going to have to play with it either on some deeper tanks our mounted pretty high.
