    How many red lights do you recommend for each one.

    i am no expert but mine is 65/55 gallon hex which is 24 inches wide and 30 inches tall, so I recommend not more than 2 red. if you have more red, then you won't see any blue or other lower wavelength like violet.

    Ya, I'm the OP,

    and although I love my current ones, it's 30W to 25Blues, and it's too white!

    I'd like to buy another custom made dimmable set.

    Can you post how you contact these companies, especially our favorite one?

    Speaking to them in Mandarin is not a problem in my household!
