I swapped some corals to Tony (350gt) and Chad and Belinda (tate1) for two ecoxotic panoramas and two ecoxotic stunners. I added to that the one stunner I had laying around and got busy. I wanted new lighting for my frag display tank, and a whole new look. I was using a fish need it fixture running T5's. Now my display is totally led lit, all hidden in a nice little acrylic canopy. Check it out :)

The legs just slip into sockets I built into the canopy, so the whole thing is easy to break down and transport. I love the blue pop, and the panoramas throw enough white that people can see the true color on the corals. Love it!

Very nice... be interesting to see how well the corals glow under all LED lights. No heat or regular bulb replacement is also a big plus. :)

Looks good sherita, as for as growth, I was getting some out of those 2 panoramas and 1 panorama pro(blue).

If you have the room, I would add one of these. http://www.ecoxotic.com/catalog/product/view/id/161/s/par38-tri-color/category/17/

You probably don't need it but would be cool......

I am trying to figure out a way to add 2 of them to my fixture.


Are you planning to get some par readings?
