Show me your LED ONLY SPS tanks!

[BonsaiNut]

I am a big believer in the future of LED's, but I am not 100% convinced that they are ready for prime time when it comes to SPS dominated reefs. I hope that I am wrong! Please post photos of your LED ONLY SPS builds!

In my experience LED are more than ready if applied and used correctly.

Colors look a bit more 'saturated' in these photos - cannot seem to quite them to look exactly like I see with my eyes, but close.

Most of my stuff is small and still growing but it's really colorful. To be upfront, I do plan on adding 2 t5s for some fill from the front. I did have a huge crash in December and a funk a few months ago but that has mostly resolved so I'm excited for the next 6 months.

Here's my NUVO 16 @ 13 months - all frags grown from small frags. Stock nuvo lighting on the sides and AI Nano in the center. Heavy feedings has helped with my growth for sure.

Sorry for the large pics not sure what happened

[icy1155]

Just a pic I had on my cell phone, but you get the idea. DIY leds only since the tank was setup, and almost everything was grown from frags.
