I will be talking with Martin tomorrow and see if he can shed some light on the subject for both of us as far as number of LEDS.

As far as your heat sink personally I would make it 12" shorter & 12" narrower then your tank. Anything bigger you will be shooting light past the edges of your tank which would be a waist.
