Guys and Gals,
I require your opinion on LED lighting.

I am running a 48" Sunbrite unit on my 140g at the moment. The only thing I am growing in the tank at this time are mushrooms. So the light works well for that..... and is programmable through my iPad.(another nice to have)

Now, I have a need to light my new tank which is 11' of tank x 26"D.

I need some help in deciding what lights to use. I have not researched this too much at this point, but I do know there are a few name brands out there to choose from. My first impression of LED lighting was "it looks nice" but did not work worth a Sh$t. I have seen comments of being too bright and not bright enough.

My goal is to find out more information from guys/gals using the LED lighting, in turn helping me to decide what will work in this large tank to support LPS and SPS corals.

**note: I do not require every sq inch to be illuminated perfectly, if there are a few areas of lower light intensity it will allow for a species that has a lower light requirement.

What would you recommend? Make/model? How many for 10'? thanks in advance.

Brad
