Evergrow LED lights

[Coasting]

I would do 2 120's over a tank that width. Cheaper. you wont get all the icky shadowing, Unless you feel the need to do everything digitally? I prefer mine simple... Its the same spread as the 120 i think so if you just do 1 on a tank that large... you're only lighting up half of it.
Except I ordered directly from the company in China, no need to pay the middle man extra.

I have Evergrows Nova a8 over my 36" tank and LOVE it, comapy was great to deal with, they did it up and sent it out super quick. I went DIY with my colour choice as I wanted my blues too be deeper/darker, then what the standard is as well as adding in some red/green, and making my whites more then just 10,000k. Great growth on my monti's and lps, haven't bought any other sps yet. But I have faith these lights will grow anything.

yea I saw them on aliexpress.com but wasnt sure if i could trust that site
I wouldnt mind spending a little more and getting from a canadian retail at least.

i dont know about trusting ali express, after it rejected my visa and asked for my passport i left..... But I trust Evergrow. Did paypal directly to them, bypassed all the silly sites. Free shipping, all you pay is the customs/import fee when it gets to your front door.

I would work with Nick at Reefsupplycanada He is awesome to deal with and I think it's important to support Canadian when we can...otherwise we can't complain when something is hard to get.

Just my 2 cents though.

Did you guys go with just the white and blue lights or did you do a customer scheme?

Im completely new to LEDs so I wouldnt know where to be with adding my own color scheme

[Coasting]

But all that canadian company seems to be doing is buying large amounts of stock coloured lights and marking up the price.
Even with the import fees (that negates what that site charges for shipping) its still cheaper to get it direct from the company that actually makes them.

I went DIY.
I wanted different whites, and darker blues then what the stock colours are, as well as adding red and green.
Ive attached the layout I did for the d120, then decided I wanted the nova and went that way instead.

whyd you decide to go with the nova instead?

[Starry]

would 1 of the D120s work on a jbj 28 nano? my pc's and moon lights are toast and looking for a cost effective alternative.

[nrosdal]

like would it work as in cover the area? Yes

or like could you fit it in the stock top? I donno

They are 16"x 8" x 2.75" if that helps.

Has anyone ordered the d120s? Or anyone running them with pictures?

I am looking into ordering some of the DIY models. I have seen on other forums that with the reds, greens and purples they tend to look nicer in the tank.
They also seem to give the tank a more purpleish tone to the whole thing which is what im wanting. Does anyone have a suggestion on the layout I should be going for?

I have checked with the EverGrow site and they quoted me 180USD/unit shipped. I am looking at 3 units.
