LED suggestion?

Rate this Entry
I would like to know if anyone has some good ideas where I can get a 36 in. custom LED made for a 40 breeder. Are there any that incorporate a T5 into their LEDs to "wash" out the intensity of the LEDs. I guess my question is, who has the best LEDs right now?

    I really like the aqua illumination units. They are a little on the expensive side, but the upgradability, and control is beyond cool. You can even simulate a lightning storm from your smart phone.

    I like the offerings by Vertex. The Illumina SR that they make comes in 1ft lengths. I really like them. You can see the YouTube demo here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AOACyN4AOS0. I hope this works for you. You can customize the colors coming out of the unit and you can also simulate a sunrise and sunset moving across the tank. Additionally you can program a moon cycle into it or have it simulate a stormy day. It even comes with software called V-link which you can use to program the light. They're pretty pricey and I have no personal experience with them, but these are the lights I want and the reviews on them that I've read are all pretty positive. The biggest problem with these that I anticipate is getting your hands on them. They also have replaceable guts which is a major plus. Here's a link to the lights on Vertex's site enjoy!
