    But I'm going to earn it back and make Comed mad at each month for the next 11years!

    Thank you Reef Led Lights ! I snagged two 48led kits

    and 12 XP-Gs for the midday

    I am going to use 48d drivers so that way I can control the look of the tank and the intensity via the reefkeeper and ALC.

    How many total leds you going to run then 98? What size tank are you pitting this over and what kind of heatsinks are you going to use?

    Nice...What are the dimensions of that tank?...I am asking so many questions because I did pretty much the same thing with my tax return and I bought a new tank to transfer my old tank into.

    How many drivers are you using? I am in the process of doing the same setup with the ALC and my RKL.
