    Sorry if I hijack your thread. I have a 120g, I thinking order this KIT 48 Ultra Premium LED DIY Kit with Dimmable Drivers - Rapid LED. I want to set it on a timer also. Which driver should I order? And how would I order the LED?

    20 blue
    4 red
    16 white
    8 uv

    Can I custom order like that? Let me know what you guy think, thanks

    Turbo with 60 degree optics prob hang it about 12-16 " at least! Those hanging kits from rapid are adjustable which is nice!

    Ive spent a lot of time researching, reading, asking, reconfiguring etc. Im glad you like it :)

    Thanks, Nismo! (I love every GT-R btw). Thats exactly the intention :)

    I agree with this, but do you have all that room in the canopy?? Canopy-less is sometimes easier when it comes to adjusting height. Mine is at 8" from the water top tho.

    You can always DIY the wire to hang the heatsinks. Wire is pretty cheap 25 cent/ft at Homedepot, $1 S hooks, etc.

    Are you gonna connect those heatsinks?
