I think, like I said before, spacing them every foot would suffice. So go with a 2 x 6 grid... So 12.

personaly, I am taking 1RB, 1TV to every 1Nw.
I think every foot is a little far for adding it in, but what you could do is srart out by adding 10-20 of them, then save up some more money and add another 10 to 20 of them.. ect untill you get close to the same amount as your white, or untill your happy with the results. maybe at 20 of them you will like the look and stop there. what kind of whites did you go with? this also will determin how many you will end up with, might not ba able to use as many with cool white as with a different white.

I just finished my LED build yesterday and sat it over my cube last night. Today was the first real day I was able to see what it all looked like. On a 18" heat sink (and yes I know this is a bit overkill
 ) I have 6 Cree XTE 3W RB's (3 of these I'm using for moonlighting), 6 Exotic 3W True Violet 420nm, 6 Cree 3W RB XP-G NW 3up stars, 2 Exotic 3W OCW 3up stars.All I can say is HOLY COW! True, I came from a couple of cfl's as temp lighting because this was an emergency put together tank but I decided to make it nice. The greens and red's explode off coral and fish. The greens glow. It (in my opinion) looks amazing!I have all the RB's on one driver, the OCW's and the TV on another and the NW on their own. Turning off the OCW/TV driver turns the tank back to fairly bland again. I am so glad I got these TV LED's.
