ReefBreeders vs Rapid LED

[redtigrinus]

Does anyone have any experience with both these fixtures? I was leaning toward Reefbreeders 48" Photon, but then remembered the Rapid LED Onyx. I'm looking to light a 90 gallon mixed reef, but I want to be able to do sps dominant down the road without having to worry about upgrading my lights. I know the RB Photon can accomplish this. I have read a bunch of reviews and seen the RB Photon up close, but I cant find much about the Onyx fixture.

Can any of you help?

I used the Photon 48 for a year and loved it, it is currently set up at UA, Brandon likes it also. I had good control over the settings and good coral growth and health. It was a mixed reef and my SPS all encrusted fast. it was a 90 gal also.

Thanks bdaley. This really helps. I was doing some more research on the Onyx and didn't like the PAR readings compared to the Reefbreeders.
