Holy cow Grizz, that is one awesome fixture! I've been in the planning stages of one for the last couple months but have had issues with getting heatsinks that didn't cost me an arm and a leg to get to the island. I'm headed up to Calgary in Aug to visit my sister, I may have to PM you and run up there to check out your stuff if you're open to it.
Funny how I've had my tank almost a year and I just heard about Canreef about a week ago! Oh, and thanks again for the pump!

I was really surprised how easy they are to build once I learned a little about LED.

Can I ask why you didn't put any red in your LED selection? I'm curious, there seems to be lots of back and forth about red and its benefits/detriments, but nothing firm on either side. Also why the green?

The fixture looks awesome!

There are reds & greens. If you go back to page five it shows them on at 1% by them self. I don't know what they do for growth to be honest but they sure make the colors look good.

I think there is something wrong with my computer - I can't see any of those photos above in this thread. They look great though!
