I almost drop the fixture in my tank

I install kessil a360s and ap700s
The Red Sea Reefer Peninsula 650 is looking fabulous.

[@mitian]

Nice Video- Ufff lucky there with the lights big no no when installing new lights- Great selection of lights, Love your tank, Can't wait for the next video. Thanks for sharing!

[@Cruzilla71]

You should do an update video on your T5's Hybrid to see how things are coming along boss..

[@Reef_Roid]

Yessssss leave it there , I think you now have the perfect light set up now

[@Reactivelight]

Yum! Drywall dust (from the hole drilling) in the tank!

[@JasonEKeane]

Wow, that was a close call! The fixture falling into the water was the least of your worries I reckon as it fell... Looks good thou!

[@KreefAquariumhobby]

Nice fixture!! I also mix coral plus with blue plus. 2 bulbs each

[@CoralEuphoria]

I agree, hybrid is the way to go!

[@PassionateReef]

Good job tank looks 100% better

[@Saisori]

At 8:22, you could just move the screw lining to the next set and the power button wont be covered up. Only issue now is the vents will be more blocked.

[@matyas4878]

New lights look super clean! I am considering purchasing one of the t5 fixtures....🧐

[@BubbaBoBobBrain1979]

I’ve been looking into that fixture a bit too and really like it. I might get one once I save up the funds for it

[@bigdanb]

That is a way better light for your tank, I really like it

[@BlueCarbonReefing]

Very nice lights! I have thought about adding some T5s to my display tank. My only advice on the lunar lights would be make sure they are easy to swap out. When I used to use those lights they lose intensity over a few months to where you can barely tell they are on. they became a pain to swap out every 2 to 5 months. I now use my radions on the blue spectrum at 1%.

[@PuffDaddyReef]

Thanks for the advice.

[@vsreef1042]

Would you mind sharing your schedule with the kessil cannon lights. I'm buying the 48 inch fixture and I really love your color choice

[@InfamousAquatics]

Tank is looking good. Like the new video format. Miss that shallow reef you had though!

[@PuffDaddyReef]

Me too. But since I can only have 1 big tank, I am glad it is the Reefer.

[@SCReefer]

Sweet lighting system...

[@lisademayo8589]

hey puff daddy? i see you're getting a little shimmer from the kessil's, and that the T5's around drowning out the shimmer? am i seeing that correctly? do they still give a nice color pop as well? i always think in my head that these hybrids would have a hard time with the led's not being drowned out by the T5s?

[@AquaticLifeLLC]

Nice video! Thank you!

[@dudepros]

Haha welcome to the t5 club!

[@vintageaudio559torres5]

what bolt did you run up the ceiling they look cool

[@anthonytorres6031]

you had said about the moonlight and the fish not jumping out.. could you explain your idea on that?. thanks

[@kevinjames1587]

Are the t5’s…LED or Flor?

[@Fleminism]

I have a mh 400w on my 3ft at the moment along with led bar. Might consider t5 instead, any advice.?

[@Reject06]

told you bro, T5 ftw!! check your alk consumption, mine took off once i went to T5!

[@Blackbookproduct10ns]

How many ap700’s could you fit one the 60” model?

[@PuffDaddyReef]

Mattyice 2 would be perfect. You could probably fit 3 but I am not sure. That would be a lot of light!

[@alexstelmachowicz2645]

Is you're tank 5ft?

[@stevenlyall6635]

Why not flip the bracket around on the AP700? You should be able to reach the button then

[@serenabowman2214]

Love the hybrid light buddy 👌 and Is that a canoe boat in your apartment lol 🙈

[@PuffDaddyReef]

reef guy 92 The cheapest kayak I could find. But it has still survived a couple of bouts in the Atlantic.

[@jodia7435]

Is it possible to get that hybrid fixture sit on top of the aquarium and not hanging??

[@PuffDaddyReef]

Not without some custom mount. They may sell something.

[@melaniesimpson6322]

Nice review.They look great! .I've heard a lot of negative reviews on the cord management. What did you think?

[@PuffDaddyReef]

It is great for the coral, and allows me to tinker and customize. I am very happy. The cable management is nothing a few zip ties and an extension cord can't fix.

[@Bronx19]

The irony in replacing a very expensive Recurve with the old T5 eh? Personally, I've gone way back to MH. Just gets it done in so many ways.

[@araskoca8172]

Nice vid

[@leel6429]

I cant believe the side of your tank did not explode. Never hang anything from drywall. Even done right over time can pull out accidentally by bumping the light. I went in my attic and installed wood over the trusses. Never trust drywall. You got lucky

[@emanuelmacias1265]

How high did you mount them from the rim of the tank to the actual fixture.

[@PuffDaddyReef]

About 7 inches. They used to be higher but wanted to reduce light spillover.

[@rameezashraf28]

why u returned recurve and back to kessil ? i m actually planning to replace my 2 kessil ap700 with 2 36 inch recurve panels

[@PuffDaddyReef]

Power and coverage. The recurve side LED's didn't do much at all compared to t5 and were a letdown. The main LED clusters in the Maxspect are awesome. The Maxpect on board control is good. If it was a 5 foot fixture, and had stringer strip lights I may have kept it.

[@DKfir-re5ec]

Hi what is the length of your tank?

[@PuffDaddyReef]

5 feet

[@sergifed91]

got the aquatic life 48" just enough light to keep the frags alive but not to help grow. they do not take off with this light. going with sb lights

[@PuffDaddyReef]

What are sb lights?

[@322sheffield]

If you want better color and green tips in that Forrest fire digi than keep it low in ur tank.

[@АлексейКононов-р7я]

Mine in 400 par area and developing very bright green it just need nutrient and phos

[@tsurro8086]

Just move that bracket in the other holes,slots, lucky u didn’t crack that tank, fyi, I ran mine at 35% max color, I like it bluer, and 85% strength, if ur at about 9” for the water,

[@harryknoll]

More Puff, more Puffffffff

[@kkrishna9791]

Whats the cost

[@PuffDaddyReef]

Krishna Karkera $450, but was on sale for $400 yesterday.

[@kkrishna9791]

Puff Daddy Reef where can i buy

[@PuffDaddyReef]

www.bulkreefsupply.com

[@cclowee]

Raise your lights 13 to 14 inches off the water trust me.....

[@96fisherman96]
