RGB allows for all colors to be created, for example sun rise/set effects can be more orange/yellow instead of red/pink which is a little more pleasing. Just adding the green LEDs would allow for RGB codes so virtually any color effect could be created. Overall it would make a better addition to traditional LED lighting which only consists of blue and white and would extend the use of the SIM LED to suplemental and not just effect. Many people are adding RGB LED sticks to there lighting for better color/spectrum. Some use the RGB Panorama Pro or something similar but I'm yet to see anything that can be linked to a common controller. The RGB LEDs need not be powerful, lower power is better as they dim better. It's not about sustaining life, just better color, my 3W red and green LEDs only run at 5-10%, I think it clear lower LEDs would be better suited to the task.

The problem I have with the Simu sticks is that the LED's on them SUCK.

They are not very bright and you can barely see the lighting effects. I have 3 on a 6' tank and they are barely noticeable even when they are the only thing lighting the tank.

It was be nice if they changed out the LED's to something a little more recent and changed the housing they come in.
