    Don't get the aquastyle, go with a 24 led kit IMO from Rapid

    I went with a 12 kit from rapid and added some uvs as well... Its already on its way... the guy I spoke with thought twelve would be plenty for my tank, Ill be mounting them on a 6"x20" heatsink so it should be able to spread over my tank pretty well right... I could always order a new driver and some more leds to throw on there if i don't think its enough? I went solderless so it should be possible to add to it?
