Xoldskies Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 What color temp are you going for in your tank? That will be a very white combo. Link to comment

masterbuilder Posted December 27, 2009 Share Posted December 27, 2009 I would stagger like your second list. Me too. I would add an adjustable driver sometime down the road so I could dial in exactly the look I wanted. Link to comment

Thanks for the help.. You could do SPS.. But they would need to be at the very top of the tank.. Directly under the strips of leds.. I would reccomend saving up a bit and going for the 5.6...

gregzbobo Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 So the strip arrangement is perfect then... I have the 3.6 kit over my NC12, I went with all 50/50 strips, I'm stuck with the inability to view pure actinic, but the coloration and the spots I mounted them makes things in my tank look awesome. Its sort of a 14000K look. Link to comment
Grad Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 I have the 5.6 in my bc29. I went with White Blue 50/50 blue white 2x whites and 50/50 on 1 power feed and the 2x blue strips on the other. Link to comment
