    don't waste your money-only 1 watt leds,and the par sucks.i've picked up 3 watt fixtures off ebay for a third of the price-comparable to the vertex illumilux in par

    1 watt led units are generally not good for anything other than looks or for a fish only tank. You need a lot of 1 watters grouped together to get any decent PAR.

    That's why my LED unit is built using 10 watters with killer PAR readings.

    Default Reefbright LED

    I used a reef bright led for over 6 months my tank was 30" deep and i had no problems with life support and I also called JL about my tank and those lights and i was told they will be bright enough to grow just about anything.

    Hope this helps

    So everybody knows, the lights Im talking about are called reefbrite not to be confused with Marineland led lights.

    Link doesn't state what types of LEDs are being used. Don't know if they are 3w, 2w, 1w, or whatever.

    Also no reviews on their site so I personally would stay away from it for now. It looks like one of those units where you buy several units and connect them together but they make their PAR comparison with a T5HO Blue bulb. They should post PAR comparison with a 10000k or 14000k bulb, not a low PAR actinic bulb (a bit misleading IMHO).
