12 Nano DIY LED

[Sean16420]

So the ballast in my JBJ Nano 12G popped about a week ago and my lights went out. So I ordered a DIY kit from rapidLED and I am impressed one that I was able to figure it out and two how awesome it looks.

If only my camera could do justice. All colours are more vibrant and the shimmering effect is just incredible. Time will tell how it grows my coral but as for color it shows way more than the stock power compacts did.

Looks great! I bet the greens really pop! Nice clean build.

how much it cost for build LED. how long it take you. I want to build like that I have nano 12 gallons same as your tanks

 

[Sean16420]

It cost me around $200 for everything shipped and took me a day to rig up. Everything still looks great and seems to be doing well.

So I have got a 12g nano too, I have been toying with idea of going to LED's. Are both colors dimmable seperate? Or when you dim one it dims both? or is it not dimmable? Also what light cycle did you have with the stock light? Now with the LED's? Also more pics are always great.
