  • Very nice Soundwave. Is that shimmer from your LED's? I assume it is.

  • Sure is. It shimmers like Halides never could.

  • hello, these LEDs are of 1w or 3w each? thanks

  • About 3, I guess. They run at 1 Amp and wattage is kinda irrelevant.

  • Hi soundwave, about how much did this cost to build????

    thanks lucifa

  • Right at $600.00.

  • I also have a 75g and have been deciding how many LEDs to do. Im going to use the 3w crees.  How many 1w LEDs of each color do you have and do you have a par measurement? I'm looking to replicate a 250w metal halide in intensity so I can eventually go sps.

  • anyone have any research on the marineland reef capable light.....thinking about ordering the 48"-60" reach? or experience first hand thanks?

  • @soundwave2thousand why go through the hassle of building your own when you can buy some for about the same price, maybe a little more?

  • @sinbadvett bullshit

    

  • beautiful ligting recif83.blog.mongenie.com

  • Hey do you have some kind of a glass under the LEDs so that the salt or humidity can't reach them ?

  • I just brought some led floodligts and rigged them over my reef tank, i am running a 14000k metal hilide floodlight in the middle, it looks awsome and the corols love it
