khalid May 7, 2020 Share May 7, 2020 What's the shimmer like? Or is it more flat like pure T5?To my eyes it has a little bit of shimmer but more on the flat side. Definitely not as flat as T5 only fixtures. I wish I could attach a video for you on here. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm tempted to keep one Kessil just to get that additional motion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry if my description sounds weird but it’s hard to explain. These definitely are brighter and full the tank with light more than the kessils did and there is definite difference in the overall appearance.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lynn.reef.nerd May 27, 2020 Share May 27, 2020 I found a youtube video recently. I really like his side-by-side color comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MauiReefer May 1, 2022 Share May 1, 2022 I'm debating about getting either two kessil a360x or two xr15 G5 pros with the aquatic life hybrid fixture. So you didn't like the kessils? Do you think the radions look much better? I keep going back and forth on what to get. I used to run halides, LEDs are new to me and it makes me nervous picking one because of the price.

If you just want to see how they look, feel free to drop by if you are local. I'm in 21122 area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
