Thanks for the input guys. I think I will do what snaz is doing and dim the white. They will be hooked up to the VDM port of the apex. How do you guys like your LEDs?

I love mine, sunrise/sunset simulation, shimmer, good coral growth, low heat and energy efficient, no lamp replacement.

I love my LEDs. I went from 2 x 13W Power Compact lights to LED so I have no comparison to MH. I think anyone in the know would say my tank is too white but I like it. I have seen Seahorse_Fanatic's big tank and it is gorgeous of course but a little too blue for my liking.

Here is a true colour FTS with blue and whites at 100%
