|   me and a buddy are diggin into a diy led set up right now. and we figured over the lifetime of the lights it will payfor itself 10-15 times over, compared to MH setups.

|   I setup an array of about 60 luxeon rebel LEDs with no lenses on half of my 120gal.  When I get that straightened out then I will build another for the other side.  Currently have t5 bulbs on that side. Does anyone know of a place to get larger heatsinks? I cant seem to find a dealer in canada. |

|   Will you have to change the lighting as often as the MH and other forms of lights?? LED's great idea! |
