    Yeah i know. I was thinking of adding violet, blue, cyan, and red all on that driver. I just wouldn't know how many of each to add

    I would do 3 of each, spread evenly across.

    That too!

    A lot of different combinations will work.

    Personally not a fan of red, had it in a reef breeders fixture and a par38 bulb. Also I have cyan and they look pretty green to me, I'd be afraid of a green led

    I like this. It wouldn't lay out too bad on my heat sink either.

    Im afraid of green too. I won't be including any. But i feel some red needs to be there. I used to have some red shrooms and they just looked washed out under my current setup.

    I feel like the red makes it look like a fresh water tank. I'll post a picture tonight to show you
