Has anyone here tried using Kessil's Tuna Blue fixtures on a freshwater tank? I used to have two of the Tuna Sun A160s but they were WAY too greenish yellow and looked awful to my eyes. I've been told that the Tuna Blue A360X allows for much greater control of the color, which would allow me to increase the reds and minimize the super green look. Has anyone here had first hand experience with this?

Yes! I am running two of them on my 125, and I LOVE them. Full disclosure, I was into those lights before I had an aquarium lol, but they are so worth it. The color and vibrancy control are out of this world, they grow plants amazingly well, and the shimmer they make, oooh baby! I have a bunch of pictures of mine, I will figure out how to post them. Feel free to ask any questions though, but I recommend pulling the trigger on them for sure.
Just so you are aware tuna blues have a cooler temp then the sun's. So a tuna blue will be adjustable between 9k and 24k kelvin the blue or colder end of the lighting spectrum. Tuna sun's allow for a 5k to 9k adjustment. With a spectral controller from kessil you can fine tune either. I've had quite a few kessils and still have 3 160 tuna sun's. I keep my tuna sun's around 7k.
