The only downside i can see so far is that there is little to NO spread to the light so I'm reconfiguring my plans and using two units (side by side) to illuminate a 24" wide system
In other words..i would never recommend this lighting system as a complete system for a tank any wider that the light fixture itself.....But they Rock!-Dave

P.S. one good thing about the limited '"spread" is that very little algae seems to grow on the glass
This is EXACTLY the main issue I found...... no spread. It is very pinpoint light, so not only is there little spread of light on either side of the fixture, there is limited spread between the LED banks. Just my observations...
