Philips LEDs - Rebel ES series.... apparently better than CREE in terms of lighting suitability for corals. nano-box-reef.com/ uses them.

you could also go to acklands and get the same thing in a different can for 1/3rd the price.......

comparing to the $400 AI Sol which has 24 Cree LEDs, going with www.ledgroupbuy.com to build similar (mix of 24 XP-G and XP-E, couple of power supplies, heatsink, optics and connectors) would cost about $265.

This right?
