    I am looking at getting 1 or 2 of these for the 11.4 gallon rimless(18.9 x 11.8 x 11.8) I'm going to get and wanted some input on these, and how many I would need to keep mostly softies and LPS and maybe a couple of sps. Thanks!:)

    I never had experience with truelumen but i've always heard that they are used as supplemental lights and not main lights, don't know if they can grow corals alone.

    You're better off getting a DIY LED kit from Rapid or you can always get a couple of BoostLED Par30 bulbs, they are about the same or even lower price of getting 4 seperate truelumen strips and buy a driver seperately.
