Running PCs ... considering "upgrading" to LEDs
Set-UP: 180g (72x24x24), acrylic bow, with shallow canopy. There is a wooden support beam dividing the canopy in half with two lift-up lips (only the top surface lifts up). The maximum internal width on each side of canopy is 33". Current PC fixtures (approx 18" long) are mounted under each canopy lid.
Excessive heat has always been an issue, therefore running PCs for years (no halides). Wanting more vibrant coral colors and growth (currently softies and LPS) and wanting to add SPS.
:idea: Considering a switch to LEDS. Read lots of info on DIY set-ups but not well versed in this area. I want a long term solution, not interested in swapping out fixtures every year.
Any recommendations of reliable, quality fixtures for my set-up?
