I've been running metal halides for the last 2 years, but recently purchased a Nanocustoms 5.6 LED kit. I'm on the fence about how I like the look and color.

Lucky for me I have two nanocube hoods, so I'm going to retrofit one with LED, and the other with 1 x 150w MH and 2 x 18w PC. I really enjoy the color from a 14k Phoenix.

interesting idea with the LED's. I am also on the fence about LED's, due to the lack of personal experience and the lack of other people's input on thier personal experiences with them. So I would like to know more of what the LED's end up doing for you once you get to that point.

Turning out to be a nice little set-up. Looking forward for the pics on the rock work. Be interesting to see the difference between the 2 light combos.

Would have to say it's about 35-40 pounds, 4 different rocks, stuck together with acrylic rods, epoxy, and black uv zip ties. I think it's going to need a lot more epoxy before I sleep well at night :lol: Had lots of fun playing around with the rock!

Going to have to try and make a video once there is sand and other things in the tank. Pictures really don't do this rock justice. I've been 'cooking' it in the dark for almost a year now.. but I saw a few pod creatures last night.

Lighting is stock cf quad, until livestock from my other tank moves in
