LED for Zoanthids

Have a look at the powerbite's. The 460nm pop the color on zoas like nothing I have ever seen, and they come in 10k and 10k 460nm mix. They are pricey but after seeing the 460nm they are worth the money.

I was looking at those in BA last tme we were in but they are too long. The light can only be 10" long.

Thanks Dawn. I have been reading his stuff for a while now. I was just hoping to find a fixture before DIY'ing a light.

I think DIY is the way to go. It's really not hard. The most difficult/time consuming part was drilling and tapping the heatsinks. The rest is fairly simple. My next project is building a 48" LED array for my 75 gallon

Yeah i just finish my setup using 12X CREE highpower LEDS on a Biocube. It wasnt hard just takes time and if done properly you can have anything you want under them... Im super impressed with my setup i just did the change over a couple days ago and the system is friggen BRIGHT AS HELL.. id goto nano-reef.com the some sections on DIY LED lighting

Have you thought about just doing PC lighting?

I don't really love the fixture but for the price, you could buy two, take them apart and re-install them in your own little canopy and have 4 PC bulbs in there.

Here's another option: http://www.catalinaaquarium.com/prod...oducts_id=1565

I was thinking of buying one of those for this tank as well. There is no canopy for this tank its sitting on my shelf. There is 5" of clearance from the top of the glass to the top of the shelf.
