i was actually over to a friends house the other day who ordered some leds with you and believe me hes got me sold its a beautiful set up and the lights are amazing i do like the dimmable drivers and the no heat or maintanance issue.things i didnt like though were where its diy theres no room for error on installation, bulbs have a possibility of burning out quick from heat,to add extra led's means a fair bit of work plus you need to find something to mount them on plus heatsink as well. what happens when the leds get wet? what about salt creep? ill send you a pm as i do want to order some like i mentioned they both have great features youll just have to send me step by step instructions on install lol ![]()

![]() Most people put a pane of glass between the LEDs and tank to prevent salt creep and getting them wet. Acrylic works too but it can sag.
You can also mount the LEDs more than a foot above the tank and there shouldnt be any salt creep/wetness. Is your friend on canreef? Which LEDs did he get? You may have been spoiled by the new XM-Ls, they are inhumanly bright. |

they are insanely bright lol but the beauty is you can power them down which leads to my next question if you have to power them down what are you really losing??
