finch6013 Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 has anyone used the lumen max 3? I would like to know how the light spread is. I was considering it as an option for lighting over the 34g solana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pantherguy30 Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 I'm useing the lumenmax 3 250 watt hqi fixture above my 50 gallon cube tank. Running a 14k pheonix bulb and all I can say is it's bright! I can't remember where I saw the thread but, this fixture at the time I purchased it had the best coverage for a 24 x 24 area. I've also heard good things about the elite model aswell. Good luck:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finch6013 Posted August 29, 2009 Author Share Posted August 29, 2009 it might be a little bit too wide of a reflection for a 20'' cube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pantherguy30 Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 It would definatly cover that size! plus you would have one heck of a fixture if you ever went to a larger size tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arsonmfg Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 I ran one on my larger cube and it was pretty nice but I have to say once I switched out to a Lumenarc I was much more impressed with the quality, how much better the light was pushed into the tank and the growth results.
