IKEA led strip for night viewing. It's the full color wheel from white to red. The pictures of the red and blue doesn't do it justice. It's just enough light to bring out my nocturnal catfish. There's a dial to adjust any color choice.

Output looks pretty good, how much was it and how many lumens if I may ask? Great looking tank as well :)
 
Looking good! I love RGB LEDs... it's fun to have extra color and control over your tank's lighting. I did something similar in my 12g nano cube. I bought some RGB LED strips from Amazon. Costco has a really nice set for a good price, too. Anyway, the tank is looking VERY nice!

That's the best I can do. There's no info on the box or booklet. It emits just enough light to view at night. It does nothing for plant growth or algae. It gives me an opportunity to view my tank early in the morning and at night. My photoperiod is 3-8pm and these LEDs are on from 8-11pm and 7-9am.
