I'm not a pro by any means and don't know much about halides and others. From what i read the halides get very hot and you have to cool them and sometims your water. You can go with par 38 bulbs , just make sure they don't spot light , make sure they spread out well over your tank. If your...

I'd agree if your going to never upgrade your tank. The nice thing about the cree's is if you decide to go bigger /deeper you can . Otherwise they look okay to me , as long as you can dim them

How would anyone know ? led is such a new tech and the model and abilitys of the led changes with each generation or basicly yearly. Just look at the jump the XM-L are over the previous generations . The nice thing about the DIY is that you can replace your led's as needed. Just screw them...

I've been reading up on it for the last week. I think its simple Right now Cree's put out the most light per voltage. The XP-E is their oldest LED and its a 3watt nothing else on the market currently comes close to that . However Cree has put out the XM-L series which is a leap above the...

they don't have blue ones yet. I'd say 26 royal blue XP-E 8 cool white XM-L 4 netrual white XM-L Remember each set of lights requires its own dimmer power supply

Well remember the XM-Ls are only for the whites , you need the XR-Es for the RB. What size is your tank.

I dunno if he can DIY it a 80 g tank done properly needs most likely 50/54 LEDs or less 30RB at $7 each = $210 16CW at $11 = $176 8NW at $11 each = $88 heatsink $50 Dimmers/power supplys $110 Total $634 Now if he wants to save money he can use all the XP-E @ $7 each . $378 $50 $110...

OCReef 60 Watt CREE Silo High Power Aquarium LED Light Fixture These are good. However Cree has new XM-L lights that are more efficent and brighter than the XP-G and XP-E DIY yourself is def the way to go. I'd also go XM-L instead of of the XP-G or XP-E Take a look at this...

[double post sorry about that

I don't have the room for anything bigger and I haven't found a 30g long within driving distance yet. I wont be buying anything till sept 6th at least so I will keep looking. Yea , I think I can build a nice LED set up for about $150 using cree bulbs for the 30G L . Also the live rock...

Thank you , So I can run with no filter using the live rock/ coral instead and no skimmer ? The other question is what power koralia circulation pump should I get. Are two 550GPH good enough . Should I get one more powerful and one less ? The way I'm figuring is $70 for the tank $50...

Thank you. Can I grab that refugium and just add something like the odyssea ps75 protein skimmer ? Or perhaps I can simply make my own I guess. What about the heater. Is that over kill for the tank or will I be fine ?

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone !
