    Hey everyone! Just looking to see what lighting upgrades are available for the JBJ Nanocubes (28 gallon). I have the CF Quad version, and I am looking to get into SPS soon! I want some LED's, but I am having a hard time finding a good way to mount them. Any help is appreciated, and if you have a JBJ yourself, post some pics of your lighting and setup!

    JBJ makes led hoods for the cube. I am not sure how good they are though. I have the same tank, im going to upgrade to leds soon, and i am either going to go with the aqua illumination nano or just a couple of PAR 30s

    i was looking into the PAR30's, but I can't find any good housing unit for them. The LED hood is another option i was looking into, but wanted to see if there was any other options. With all the nano cube and biocube owners out there, someone has to know something!

    I've heard about people using IKEA fixtures that house PAR30s. BoostLED makes one that clamps onto the tank.
