personally after using for 4-5days...i can't really say i like it very much or i dislike it. the main thing is that, the colours of my corals dun look that great under maxspect as compared to T5 which allows me to have several combinations of ATI and VHO tubes.
some pple may like the shimmering effect, but to me, i'm not that particular...T5 will give a more uniform spread of PAR. but after using maxspect 60w, the extreme right and left corners dun get that much light intensity as the center portion. good thing is, i dun keep SPS..and my corners are low light demand corals like mushrooms and suns.
it will take some time for T5 users to get use to using LED and for yr corals to get used to it also...as during the first day..my corals did not open as big as before until the 3rd day...after getting use to the new lighting.
if you ask me which one will i choose between MH & LED...i will choose LED...unless you are not particular abt electricity cost and heat.
