Nicrew Hyper Reef 30

[Drew P. Wiener]

Received a Nicrew Hyper Reef 30 as a gift for Christmas and haven’t seen any threads for this specific fixture. As a beginner in the hobby, this fixture was a replacement for my Nicrew Marine LED light bar that I originally purchased a few months back. I see this fixture as a step up as it offers more power and the ability to tweak the lighting channels to your needs. It’s no ferrari like the AI prime or other expensive fixtures, but it caters to my needs as someone just beginning in the hobby. Below are some pictures of how my tank looks. I’ve only had this light on my tank for a day, so I’ll update later on if I notice anything positive or negative.

Both pictures are from the same lighting settings, ones just been taken with a colour filter to reduce distortion in the picture.

Thank you for posting. I look forward to seeing the future updates on this light.

Hows everything so far with the light

Great, no real big complaints so far! The only thing that bugs me is how sudden the lights turn on. I wish there was a way of ramping the lights without having to use the dual channel timer.
I really like the functionality of having some control over the individual channels. Over all so far I would recommend the lights to anyone who’s maybe looking to upgrade from the cheaper Nicrew lights without breaking the bank!
