    Dear Bc29 owners.

    How did you upgrade your lighting from stock to LED's? I have no interets in MH or T5 lighting, but rather LED I want to get. I already have a Panaroma LED Module 453nm full blue actanic light from ecoxotic.

    Ecoxotic Panorama LED Module

    I have this attached to under my feeding hood, I made a hole on the feeding hood part and attached it there, so right in front of PC lighting case.

    My pc lighting has been 6 months since I got it, and currently running out of effect and growing algae in the tank glass, it has just started and in no time it will grow into hair algae and bite my butt.

    I thought to my self, rather then spending 80 dollar on the pc and actanic light bulb for bc stock bulbs, I would rather invest little bit more towards LED Lighting.
    Now I am no good with wirings and stuff, nor do I have much materials to be all mechanical, I need something all in one set up, thats maybe at most around 200 dollar, and will support all the corals I have now, frogspawn is what i have as the most light demanding.

    What do you guys suggest that I can replace my pc bulb? Do you think I should just get 2 more panaroma LED Module?

    Thank you for reading, and have a nice day.
