![]() Whoa, hold the phone! I had no idea you switched to LEDs! What did you end up hanging over the tank?

![]() Sooo then, they have to be dimmable ?
I could give you numerous links to waterproof led strips in the 460-470nm range if you're only looking for 'on/off' |

![]() You can buy dimmable T5 ballasts ... 1-10v
I can't help you with the day/dusk LEDs if you want them dimmable |

![]() OK, I'm dyin' here to post them for someone, so, here's some LED strips you can add to your fixture for blues/actinics
All are close to or between 460nm to 470nm and are waterproof strips that you cut to length and add your own power supply http://www.superbrightleds.com/morei...light-bar/123/ http://www.superbrightleds.com/morei...-light-bar/48/ http://www.superbrightleds.com/morei...ght-strip/103/ http://www.superbrightleds.com/morei...ght-strip/102/ |

![]() I have a question: For those that are considering doing a T5/LED combo light, what combo do you think is the right combo? Since most LED fixtures are primarily Royal Blues and Whites, what's the ideal T5 additions in your opinions?

My take on LEDs is why are companies keep upgrading their white LEDs and keep developing them. Most tanks out there cant run their whites 100% without burning corals, I would like them to concentrate development more on blue/royal blue/ any beneficial colours. I run all my blues 100%, even back in the SOL days with 40 degree optics they did not burn anything, but then ramp up 2% whites I start to see paleness. |
