My New LEDS - 240 watts

The LED comes with a lens, doesn't it? Does that lens can control the light emit degree or not?

 

I compared their pictures, boostled's and supersmirky's, look same, probably they both bought from same china supplier.

 

The casing looks like it...as do a million other rebranded fixtures. If you look up at the light, you can tell it has far less LEDs than the Mu135W, and they appear to be brighter to the eye.

 

Yeah, they seem simliar. There's another one on the alibaba website that looks like some we sell here

Dimmable CREE LED Aquarium light 60w products, buy Dimmable CREE LED Aquarium light 60w products from alibaba.com

Not as many watts but much cheaper too.

Not sure what the deal with the algae is...but it's starting to grow everywhere. Some strands are reaching the top of my aquarium hahaha. Gotta get this figured out before i just have an ugly algae tank

 

Looks great.!I wish your aquariums growing well!

 

Here's some updated pics

I'm still noticing an increase in algae growth all over the rocks. Any suggestions for getting rid of this??

The Duncans are growing considerably as well as the bubble coral but now my toadstool doesn't appear to be fully extending here lately. I'm doing a water change today and will see what it looks like after.

 

Algae looks to be Dinoflagellates, from what I can see at least.

 

Thanks for the ID ....doesn't look like good stuff..I will try to get better pics up later. Looks like I'll be sucking up as much of this algae as I can during the water change. I'll try to find pre-leds pics for comparisons and post the new pics and the old pics

 

The algae proves that the LED aquarium light does have higher efficiency than your T5HO set up, the light are much more intense, higher penetration, higher PAR value, what you people say.

No algae with your T5HO set up I think it's because your tank didn't get enough lighting. Now there is algae it's probably the tank get too much lighting.

You should reduce the lighting time, or reduce the light intensity, you can cover some LEDs with some stickers to reduce the light.

 

By the way, what's the value of NO3? High NO3 plus too much lighting, then algae comes, right?
