I have a couple of set of DIY moon light that I have been thinking of selling. They are brand new, never used. If interested I will dig them out and send you a pic of them and explain how to install in to your fixture.

moonlights
you dont need 3 watt crees for moonlights-led wheat bulbs will do with a 4 watt transformer run in a series-you want it dim-not bright-you have to simulate night time.i picked up a diy kit off ebay for $10-includes everything for 12 bulbs.but now i have the vertex they are just sitting in a drawer-maybe for my breeding tanks

This is what I use for my moonlights.
They are an ok price, but cheap make. They don't last, not all of them anyways. http://cgi.ebay.ca/42-24-LED-Waterpr...item2c59a0c789 I just let them rest in the holes of the eggcrate i have covering the top of my tank. Here is my tank with them on.

These are the ones I have,
http://cgi.ebay.ca/Moonlight-Aquariu...QQcmdZViewItem I think I have a set of 4, 6, 8 & 10. There is no light streak and the blue hue is completely even.

I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.

Best thing for a moon light I have ever found is an 8” (15-watt) black light. I saw this in action at a late night visit to a fellow reefers place and was very impressed.
Honestly, I find the LEDs provide too much of a spotlight effect, whereas the black light appears much more diffuse and natural over the tank. I promptly went out and bought the above noted light at an automotive supply store (pricess auto) for about $9
