Crow Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 I'm looking into replacing the fluvals on my 75 because I'm just over the yellow and I've narrowed it down to either an ledstar aqz or a week aqua p. also, does anyone have any experience ordering from aquatic motiv?

Never used or seen Ledstar, but have WeakAqua P's. They look to be both similar in spectrum and WA can pump quite a bit of par. WA is more popular and is catching on fast in the upper end of planted tanks. Here's my AGA shot under WA and a few recent shots with different exposures. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you can actually see what color the fish are... unlike a certain fluval light lol. The week aqua also has more leds in it and higher lumens than the aqz, so I'm starting to lean toward the p. Would one 48" of the p series be enough to grow high light plants in a standard 75 gallon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CO2 would be the only limiting factor. My PC monitors are trash for editing and sorry the the pictures are so dark. But I assure you, my tank looks a fruit market at high noon on a clear blue sky day. The weak point on the WA is they are fan cooled and is a failure point of the light.

A couple of your rainbows and the samolus (?) on the bottom left are still pretty bright, so I'm not having a hard time picturing that mental image. Alright, I think you might have talked me into it 🥳 I appreciate your input and time answering my questions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
