Yes, this combination should be fine with SPS corals placed within the first 12" of water depth.

[Remmers]

would this light be ok on a 120 gallon 4x2x2.

All I am really putting in it are soft corals fish inverts and zoa's.

Thanks

The corals would need to be within the first 15-20" of water depth. I also think your tank is a little wide for one fixture so maybe two fixtures would be a better choice to give you full coverage front to back.

Would one of the 48-60 inch lights be ok on a 75 gallon with a few soft corals in them. i currently have a 48 inch ecoxtoic stunner strip that would be on as well.

Soft Corals should fare well under this light. Just be sure to place the corals carefully based on lighting needs.

[Remmers]

I got a few of these, as mu friend changed his mind and I picked his up.

Will this light be ok over a freshwater tank with live plants?

Thanks

The color spectrum is specifically made for reef aquariums but it can be adjusted using the included controller.

You might want to check out the Aquaticlife EDGE fixture for a planted tank.

I already have the lights, and its to much of a hassle to return them.

With the remote what you recommend on how to adjust the settings?

Planted tanks typically use 6500K - 10000K colored light.

Adjust the 445nm/460nm actinic blue LED's down to a minimal setting and increase the 8,000K/12,000K White LED's to the maximum which should provide a perfect spectrum for plants.

Can the length of the ramp time be adusted?

Yes from 0 minutes to 30 minutes. It comes programmed to 15 minutes.

Yes, the Ramp Timer Pro has an adjustable ramp time from 0-30 minutes.

[roogahroo]

Shame. I was hoping the ramp time could be longer. Can it be programmed to ramp down to a certain intensity, stay there for some time, then ramp down to darkness?

Will the 48"-60" 46 watt model of this light be sufficient for my 55 gallon tank ? Or would I have to supplement with an additional 36"-48" model ??
I have 18" of water depth, about 21" from the bottom of the light fixture to my substrate.
I have blue mushrooms towards the bottom of my tank.
A large frogspawn middle of my tank. A Haitian anemone, zoanthids, pulsing xenia.
Thinking of getting a rose bulb anemone ???
I currently have 2x54watt 10k & 2x54watt 420/460nm T5HO....SICK OF BUYING BULBS !
Wanting to go LED on a budget.

The 48" - 60" would provide ample light for low-medium light corals in a 55 gallon aquarium. I would only suggest a supplement if you plan on keeping higher light demanding corals such as SPS. Anemones tend to move to a position where lighting and flow are desirable so this should not be a problem.

Being that you will need to acclimate your corals slowly to LED light, it is probably a good idea to start with the single fixture. Then 6-8 weeks down the road you can re-evaluate and add another fixture if need be.

It's a great light. We've got it in stock today with free shipping! We even offer guest checkout if you'd prefer not to create an account.

[lex2lo]

If I got 2 of these for a 60 inch long tank would I be able to keep corals? They are only .25 watt right?

Two of the 48-60" Orbit Marine lights would be great for a mixed reef. The individual LED diodes are 0.25 watts each with a total maximum wattage of 46 watts.

Hi, I got one of the 48 - 60 lights. I'm thinking of buying another. Can they be synced to come on at the same time or inked to use one timer?

We looked into this and haven't found any information anywhere that would indicate they can be synced and used together on a single timer (although we can certainly understand why that would be optimal).

Would the 18-24" model be okay for a 20 gallon tall tank with a torch coral and bubble tip anemone? Thanks!
