    Okay so iv decided to go for the reef angel. I'll be ordering it within the month. Anyone else have suggestions for diy leds? I was reading some forums and i want to throw in some other colors of led such as reds and greens possibly actinics. How should I mix everything together? I am thinking ill stay within 24 leds

    I'd keep the 24 with just blues and whites, then if you don't like it add another driver with some colors if ya want!
