当我们给您概述所有新功能Red Sea’s new MAX C Series所有的水族馆，几乎所有关于照明的东西都重新考虑了，除了照明。最大C坦克缺乏LED解决方案，这对许多潜在客户和经销商来说都是一个令人困惑的解决方案，尤其是当似乎所有的水族馆照明迅速全面启动时，至少在北美礁石场景中。
LEDs have progressed a ton over the last five years and we as reefers have collectively learned a lot about how to use them over reef tanks. Red Sea’s main hold up with the newer LED technology is that it seems they are trying to make the Red Sea MAX C series a reef tank that is everything to everyone; they want the noobies to be able to grow corals with ease and to be able to advance all the way to SPS with the same lighting solution.
We would argue that it’s actually easier to keep and grow starter corals with a moderate amount of LED lighting, which is the part of the market that is most likely to gravitate towards “keeping” corals looking good and healthy and less worried about break-neck growth rates in this kind of all in one aquarium. However, trying to come up with an LED solution that is both amenable to beginner reef keepersandhigh light SPS corals would be harder, and more cost-prohibitive.
用他们自己的话来说，这是红海必须说的是关于线性T5和紧凑型荧光照明的枪支。
The promise of a MAX® coral reef system is that it provides a complete, plug & play, reef spec® aquarium for all levels of hobbyists without having to worry about the choice, compatibility and suitability of the equipment.
All of the products that Red Sea develops for reef hobbyists, including the MAX systems, start with understanding the biological needs of the corals. This approach has enabled us to develop our “Reef-Spec” which defines the environmental conditions necessary for successfully maintaining SPS corals in a reef aquarium.
照明是礁石规格定义的重要组成部分，我们多年来的研究清楚地表明，T5荧光灯以简单且安全的方式提供了珊瑚的所有需求。此外，T5使用不需要业余爱好者的专业知识或理解，并且将支持Max Aquarium所有地区的所有主要物种珊瑚。
从金属卤化物和荧光灯照明到一般的水族馆（尤其是礁石罐）的LED照明并不是由珊瑚的需求驱动的，而是由照明行业内部的移动驱动的。
在不介绍技术细节的情况下，可以说LED照明和T5之间存在显着差异，除非将LED灯知识应用于水族馆，否则可能会对珊瑚造成伤害。许多业余爱好者在学习如何使市场上可用的LED灯适应其珊瑚礁的LED灯方面投入大量时间，并取得了各种成功。
In keeping with the lighting industry’s advances in this field, Red Sea’s goal is to be able to provide MAX aquariums with LED lighting that can safely ensure at least similar coral growth, coloration, vitality and longevity to that currently achieved in our T5-driven MAX systems.
Red Sea的开发团队目前正在评估LED照明，以与Max Aquarium一起使用，我们希望能够在不久的将来提供礁石安全的LED照明解决方案。
