    Are you planning on getting a controller for them? If so, ya wanna make sure they're compatible with that future controller, some need the P's, some the D's

    I know the D's work with a pot(lol) and i think the P's do too, but not sure on that. If you think you may buy a reef controller, apex, typhoon controller someday, I'd shoot mike from rapid a email and see if the P drivers can be controlled with a pot, if so, get those that way they'll work with any controller ya decide to add some day.

    about a 6"X40" probably, but I'd do 2 heatsinks of 6x20" so you can cover the tank better.

    I'd say 2 of those would work nicely ;)
