Where to get extra LED light strip for BC 3.0?

[hirschy75]

So I have the new Coralife BioCubes that offer extra space for more LED light strips but I have no idea where I can buy one. Any idea where I could find one? Their website seems pointless...

Check ecoxotic.com. they'll probably have somethin that fits

I don't think they have anything so small:

 

Zoomed in:

 

And there's space for another below the switched off bulb

Would you need full spectrum or just moon light type? What's the measurement of the free space in there. Have a look here. If you need full spectrum check the panorama pros.

What about Digital Aquatics' moonlight pods?

They're serving as moonlights, just figured another 3 in there wouldn't hurt and might look a little cooler

 

About 6" long tho so I think the pros would be much to long for them

Yep, shortest strip they make is 12".

Here's a link to my tank w/ an excerpt. I can't tell if the LEDs are just moonlighting or actual legit LEDs

Seems to be a .75W bar, not sure how great that is lol. This LED #### is so foreign to me :/

I've been searching the web since I ordered my new BC 14 (which everything should be here by the middle of next month). I went ahead and emailed coralife about it, I'll update as soon as I hear back from them. I even thought at one point that it was a universal adapter, I was wrong.

I have been looking for the last week for these strips. I don't think they are available to buy yet.

Straight from the email:

 

"I’m sorry but there was a packaging snafu but the extra LED strips should be to retailers by the end of the month.

 

We do apologize for the delay."

 

Does anyone know if the white ones will help with coral, I guess it cant hurt.

Good to hear

 

Yeah I'm not sure how beneficial those wil be, rather than just switching to the panorama pros

Also glad to hear. I have been trying to find these!

I wonder if it will help with any coral growth. I think they will have a blue, white and green?

 

If anyone gets these and uses them, please do post a review!

I too have been looking for those Coralife modular LEDs. I also wrote to Coralife and was told that they would be available in June.

 

Yesterday, I located a vendor who now has them. I ordered a set of lunar blues and a set of cool whites.

I will have them in on Friday

Do they have enough par to grow more than what the stock pc tubes can do? are they just accent / moon lighting? Might want to save your cash for a more powerful led upgrade. Depending on what you plan on stocking of course. Hopefully people won't think they can start growing sps and clams with these LEDs. Alto being the exception.

They are accent LEDs, if anyone thinks they will be able to grow SPS with these they need to do more reading on N-R
