These look pretty cool for a nano tank

They don't make these anymore. I was going to get some for my AIO tanks and could have them make me a few but it was special request only.
u read my mind, yes, i see this one few weeks back, GOOD choice, " bright 14K look when both channels are set to 100%"
It includes 13- 12K White, 2- 6500K White, 4-420nm Purple, 21- 450nm Royal Blue, 4- 480nm Blue, 2- 520nm Green, and 2- 660nm Deep Red LEDs which have been custom selected to excite as many pigments within your coral as possible, while providing the needed energy for zooxanthellae photosynthesis. It also includes 3- 480nm Blue Moonlights which are on their own programmable channel. 90 degree optics are also utilized to ensure our highest PAR levels capable of growing SPS, while avoiding the "disco-ball" effect.
Also ,perfect Coral Spectrum for that $.

Vio, you are correct, it has 6 3.5k which I may change later on to more RB and UV but the spectrum is good enough for the price. The spectrum on that nova one is very nice too.

Big light fixture on a little tank, it looks overpowering. What settings are you using?
I just tried to increase my blue channel from 50% to 60-70% & one of my zoas started to show some slight discoloration. I caught it on time (I hope) & now have it at 55%. I felt comfortable about increasing faster since I moved the lights higher up in the tank.
I really like the IT2080. I wish it would come without programming & just manual control...lower price. I also agree there is too much white in that fixture & need more variation. I would be scared to go to 50% on that.

I currently have IT2040 hung about 12 inches above the water with the blues at 85% and the whites at 65%...when I had the blues at 50% and the whites at 30% my sps coral where loosing color ,after turning up both channels all my corals are gaining more color everyday...my tank is a 60 cube 24"x24"x24" no shadowing at all! Then again my corals are use to these lights and all the new ones I have been grown under LED's also
