Well i picked up 3 LED fixtures from a local store here in town, have them posistioned in thirds on my 215g tank. Im curious to know what the levels are in the tank but dont have a meter. Its very bright in there now and im kinda worried that it might be too bright. Each fixture has 50 White and 50 Blue for a total of 100 LED's per. 300 LED's is impressively bright but... it worries me. So if anyone has a par meter and wouldn't mind measuring my tank :) Let me know. Thanks. Im right off 1604 and Military .

What fixtures? Are they dimmable?

I know theres a meter going around but unsure if it's only available to charter members.

no, they are not dimmable... wish they were, they are ones that Paul at reefs2u designed and had made. Hopefully someone will chime in on a meter.

I think those are similar to reefkoi ones, they get them from hong kong I believe. if your a charter member you can use the light meter Louis at elegant reef has.
