I had been looking at Rapid LED. I guess I will just use their formula. I was just hoping to gain some understanding on where the formula comes from and if it is accurate.

The tank I was planning for is a 20 high. The other issue I had was the size of the heat sink. I was thinking of going big so that I can distribute the light evenly but most of the lights you can buy are smaller so the light is mainly focused over the centre of the tank.
