Why not? LEDs would be perfect for this size of tank as the cost savings in bulb replacements would be huge.

Why not is right, SW is expensive enough & I'm not replacing bulbs every 8 month.

It's getting my huge DIY LED that I built last yr.

I think (as your awesome friend) that some day you should build me DYI LED lights for my 80g and my 230g. I figure it would give you something to enjoy doing in your spare time

What is this thing you are referring to as spare time?

You have tons of it, you even posted pics of you lazing around in your tank, claiming to be cleaning it, but I think you were taking a nap!!

I just read through this whole thread, and all I have to say is...

So how exactly are you plumbing the closed loop again?

Seriously though, I have massive, massive scratch repair envy. I might actually consider getting you to come out to my place at $100/hour to fix the scratches on my tank if they weren't all half way down on the inside. You did a stellar job.
