I got to see this tank on Sunday........the LED's are very cool and the layout is awesome. I am seriously considering upgrading to LED's....but still doing on the research and reading before jumping in.

hey do i get any credit for this 2 days work of putting the leds together???

oh and Josh just do it!! leds are the goodies! put it this way tommy hates zoas before i got him into leds and now he's a zoa fanatic!! without leds zoas look like crap...

Tommy · 07-31-2010, 01:38 PM

Man you are right about Zoa ugly without LED> Just order 3G worth of LED for my Big tank. Get ready Wayne LOL. Before my only concern about LED that is will it still giving me the grow on SPS. But indeed you prove me wrong since i have no reason to get back into Metal Halide again.

My 65gal currently using a Kalk reactor and Calcium Reactor as the same time. SPS really take off under this LED.
