LED lighting for a Nano

[hockeyhead019]

Hey everybody,

Just curious if anybody knew any good LED fixtures I could use over a nano tank. Size wize it'll be a 20 gallon with the back ~6-8 inches sectioned off to hide the equipment

I'm also kicking around doing a diy build so that I can have my color mix and have two dimmable channels

Any links are appreciated!

Cheers

I seen people use two of theses, please note you can buy other bulbs for other company with other led options. DIY be best for own color control.

I got three of these stunner strips and they are bright enough for anything.
Link for the pros which are more powerful but twice the money.

Whats your price range your looking to spend? And 20 long or high?

20 long and I'm hopefully spending under 200 on the lighting but we'll see the budget hasn't been fully worked out yet

Any corals? Dimensions?

If so, DIY would be your best/cheap option. It can be really simple build or I can tell you how to make it complicated but 100% custom DIY

Dimensions are 24 x 12.5 x 12.5

And I'm thinking of doing a pretty custom DIY build glarior haven't finalized the plans yet but we'll see I'm trying to figure out how many LED's and what mix I want lol

for SPS... ~16-18 LED's. You can have a full spectrum or just blue/whites. I personally like the full spectrum. That is what I am working on now.

If you an electronics person you can build your own touch screen controller and use $5 meanwell drivers and be able to dim them.

So many options I can go on and on about.

What ideas are you thinking?
