Please recommend a LED set up.

I run my 260 at about 65-70% of what it can do and the best thing is the light rolls from sunrise day sunset to moon which makes the world of difference. I can't say money well spent but certainly won't be going back to mh or t5 ever again.

Wow, the idea that I could do this with a 48" had never occured to me, I really didn't think I could get away with that. That does make the Illumunia more manageable cost wise.

You say "only 5 panels lit up" how many panels in total are there in your 5' fixture so I can get some perspective here.

You could check out these ones: http://www.thereefshoppe.ca/index.ph...72fc447e39c103

I have seen them in action and they are nicer than the 3-400W MH that he had on his 220gal tank.

The corals have great colour, and the tank is doing great.
