Hi Magma, which LED did you get? I'm thinking of getting 1 unit of D120 full spectrum to light my 3 ft x 2 ft x 2 ft. If I can get away with only 1 unit that would be amazing.

i went with a D120 on my jbj-28. im fairly impressed. corals look as good or better than they do under T5s in my 180. Too soon to comment on growth thou. have white about 20% and blue around 30. cant ever see needing to go higher than 50% per channel on this size tank.

I got the D120 Full Spectrum units, 3 of them for a 6ft tank, and they are bright! since my 6ft tank is not setup yet I put one of them over my 3ft tank at about 10" above the water and it lights up the tank a TON. I would not see you needing more than 1 unit over a 3ft tank.

I also ordered from reef supply canada, nick was great to deal with.
