quote=mseepman;627527]Older thread here but wondering if there are some more pictures that people can add to this thread. I am still planning on building my DIY fixture but my house got stalled part way into the build and I've been preoccupied with that, and children and changing jobs...etc.

Any new pics people have of their LED's?[/quote]
Here is my 72 3watt Cree, DIY, 36 XPG cool white, 27 XPE royal blue, 9 XPE blue, no optics, w/meanwell dimmable drivers, controlled with RKE ALC.
The first pic is the LED, the 2nd is a 4x54w T5 HO

Nice...good to see some more setups here.

2x E.shine 60w LED units @ 70% (acclimating)

Excellent value and no heat issues!

I will take a pic of my 20g sps nano with my led fixture for the thread. Smaller, however its the first time in 30yrs. my sps are growing and have good colours.

I've been tossing around the idea of going L.E.D. for Actinic lighting. My canopy isn't built yet so I havne't put in a ton of reaserch yet.

Check out modularled.ca. They have a lot of knowledge, are out of Red Deer and are a canreef sponsor.

I don't see many commented this setup. I think the setup looks pretty amazing. How is your tank doing, Lampshade?

Sorry, wasn't clear enough in the post, that's not my tank, it's the one I linked there from RC, great tank, and the guy has some pretty good info on LED systems. With LED technology going so fast I'm waiting for a little bit. 2 Months ago if you said red LED's you would have been laughed at... and now... well... Ecotech's new system and Vertex upgrades are giving red/green lights.

Some amazing setups in here though, and lots in other forums as well, the whole LED Voodoo "oh no! something new!" Is pretty proven out, and as more people and technology go towards it it can only get better.

+1 for modular LED, quick easy helpful, i put my leds heatsink and fan right inside the canopy for my JBJ 28g, with a little help from the grizz of course, works great and still looks sexy
