I started to like SPS corals more and more, especially full-spectrum acropores in daylight. For 8h anyway my Hydra 64HD shines on the full spectrum around 10000k. I saw the most beautiful and natural acropores with the HQI + T5 hybrid, these aquariums were in the years 2010-2014, so a long time ago.
I would like to change the lighting from Hydra 64HD + 2x24w T5 to Giesemann Spectra 1x250w HQI + 4x24w T5
And now the question, because the price difference is small between the 250W and 400W filament in the Spectra model.
The dimensions of the aquarium 60x50x50cm
Is the 400W filament just a madness that will burn the corals?
The colors under the Blue LEDs are really cool, but I like the acropores under 10000K - 14000K more and the additional Royal blue and Uv LEDs can always be added in some DIY construction.
To achieve as much power for the corals as I would like, I would have to add one more Hydre 64, which in watts would be similar to a 250W filament.
The photos I attached are illuminated with HQI + T5 enchanted me.
The light output in these tanks is above 2W / L
