Once i get my new 40 Gallon in two months or so i'd like to use LED lights and i need some advice on which ones are the best or if it's even possible to have LED lights with a reef tank all input on this subject is welcome!
Probably want at least 1 of these, possibly 2 on a 40G if you want really high light demanding corals. Still too expensive for my taste to buy a fixture. I think they run around $500ea.. so if you need 2 of them and want a controller with it to give different settings your looking at around $1300. They will work for any type of coral.. but the price is just waaaay to high when compared to T5HOs, that is unless you build your own LED light, then it is reasonable.

Wow.. a fixture that is super expensive.. AND junk by todays standards.. Luxeon Rebel leds? Aren't those about 2 years old now and only about 1/3 the output of the Cree XP-G's?Hi M8
you can look at this LED fixture they have free shipping in Canada but the price is way up there maybe you can buy one and let me know how it is
good luck with the build
