AshleyAshley: This light almost got a 5 star rating, however I have a rimmed tank and it does not fit at all. I had to take a piece of acrylic, and squeeze it in for it to be mounted and stay there without falling. I can’t seem to find a perfect setting I like yet where my corals really pop, but I also haven’t had the time to play around with them yet. I will be adding a third one to cover the middle of my tank, I have a 125 gallon and even with 2 the spread is amazing.
I recommend this light if you’re on a budget but also want a good bang for your buck.

Matt: I've been running a Nicrew 100w on my 20g (I converted to an AIO) for about 1 1/2 years. I needed about 25" of coverage, not the full 30" as I used 5" on one side for my overflow and return chambers. Depth isn't a concern. Although I really like the Nicrew's spectrum with respect to coral color pop and being able to control the whites and blues independently (meaning a separate ramp up/down for each using the optional $50 controller), I didn't feel like I was getting the right coverage and my corals didn't seem to be doing well. I ended up supplementing with a 24" 2 bulb T5 which did seem to help quite a bit. I also added separate moonlights with one of those 14" flexible wands. So 3 lights for a 20g - seemed like overkill. So, I was torn between replacing it with the 150w Nicrew (which should provide the coverage I needed) or the SmatFarm.
I saw a couple of tanks with lights like these on it and really wanted to give one a try, so I pulled the trigger on this one and just replaced my setup the other day. So far, I'm really happy with the decision. There are a few improvements that could be made that would give it 5 stars across the board for me.
Pros:
1) Shimmer....

jhonny: Excelente luz, leí la reseña en otros grupos de corales y a pesar de ser china es de calidad, la luz es profunda, fácil de programar y mis corales están creciendo sin pagar de mas

Kevin K: This light is well designed and well made for the price! If you just want something with controls to set and forget this may be the light for you but there are a few cons too.
Pros:
- excellent spectrum and color mixing, colors in my corals and fish look as good as expensive brand lights, and actually better than a lot I've seen
- there are six channels and they are a little different that the description, and are actually ideal: 1 - cool white, 2- blue / royal blue, 3 - even deeper blues, 4 -violet/UV, 5 - warm white, 6 - green
- time and programming is kept when the power is disconnected
- the menu and touch controls are very simple and easy to use, unlike some other Chinese black box fixtures (and some of the high end brands too) this one seems like a lot of thought went into the design
- dimmer mode which lets you override the current daylight/night timer setting and will keep the color setting in memory so you can quickly go back to it any time, or have it turn on in this mode from an external timer
- night mode which turns off all but the regular blue channel 2
- if your whites/green are set lower than blues, during sunset...

Steve CSteve C: After using T5 lights for the past 4 years with moderate success, I decided to venture into the LED market. With so many options and price ranges available, I stumbled onto these Smatfarm lights and I am SO glad I did. From the initial assembly to the programming to suit my needs, I was never so happy. And the price point was exceptional....I HIGHLY recommend these Smatfarms to anyone in the reef hobby.
