SPS success with Ecoxotic Arm LEDS?

[magdelan]

Has anyone had any success growing properly colored sps under the Ecoxotic Arm LED light?

If you have, how many strips and what color temp combinations have you used?

FYI: I have a 5g rimless tank.

Mag, I wouldn't try it. I was running the Ecopico with 5 led strips, and I was having some color fading and zoas were stretching, even right at the top of the tank. I took Nemus' advice and got a Par bulb, and think that I finally have enough light.

I think that the LED strips work well for softies, but not much more than that.

Thanks for the advice... anyone else?

i had 5 strips, some zoas were fine, but other were really reaching, and that was near the top. I would think some very easy sps may be ok at the surface, but dont hope for a ton of color or growth.
