    well they are not installed on the tank yet but i received them a couple days ago and they are nice looking. and cheap(compared to other sources) and from what the guy tells me they sell a lot of the 6500k units for growing plants. also for right now i will be using them for supplement lighting until i get the funds to get the other 8 panels. the clearly leds are retrofit so as long as you are a diy'er it should be a pleasant experience

    it isn't fun to look at. ask ziggy222 he just ordered the retrofit kit for his 10 gallon i don't think he received them yet. but he will be one more to give you a second opinion

    Does anyone know the significance of having the overflow box off centered from the middle of all glass aquarium tanks? I'm so use to having the overflow in the corners of the tanks that I can't seem to understand why all glass prefer the way they do. What are the pros and cons?

    Welcome to 3Reef!!!

    Dont know about the overflow, maybe its just for aesthetics. In my tank i decided to drill the holes for the overflow in the center of the tank but its offset. To hide overflow.
