Ok let's shed some light on this subject.

Cool & Nuetral White HEW with a few blues / royal blues


All whites & blues





Still need to get the High Noon XPG's, Red's & Green's going yet but need a few connectors I forgot to get when I was at Martins yesterday.

Layout makes a lot of sense to me. I look forward to seeing what the output actually looks like.

If you wanted to move the boards around and swap some now... how hard would that be?

Once I get the center row of XPG'S fired up & the few scattered red & green the layout will really make sence.

I think if I needed to move boards around it might take a scalpel to cut the Arctic Silver carefully under the board but I think this will work well.

Wow, your heat sink/LED build is so intense. This is going over your 165g shallow 8'er?

Yes, it will be going on the 165 gal until I get the 300 gal 8'er built.
