How would you attach those moonlights to the lamp and still make it look good?

This is how I'm gonna do mine, 3 sections 4-5 inches long. I will use the 3m adhesive and attach to the fixture just outside lights on the shell. I will then wire into a three way splitter and install an inline dimmer. Full coverage and dimming capability. Maybe I'm in dream land but seems like it should work to me. I would rather use the additional space in the fixture for real lights by using less 420 or rb.

Unless you like paying 3 times the price for basically the same thing.

+1. Cheaper to get it direct instead of paying a middle man.

New member here! Just joined reefcentral since I find that there is so much more info on this forum compared to the other forum I was on.
Talking about LED lights, I am about to order these sets of lights and wanted your opinions about the actual lights and my choice of bulbs before confirming my purchase.
To be exact, its the 36" 36X3W Bridgelux Intelligent Dimmable LED light fixture.
http://www.ledaquagrow.com/en-view-cp404.html
The exact choice of lights are the following and all with 90 degree optic lenses:
18pcs - White 14K
10pcs - Blue 460nm
6 pcs - Moonlight Blue 453nm
2pcs - Purple 427nm
The light fixture will be going on top of my 46g bowfront and will be replacing my dual T5HO. Currently have all sorts of LPS, Zoas and shrooms. No LPS, maybe later. All my corals are doing ok, all open but not growing except for the shrooms. I know the tank is currently under powered with only 2 ATI T5HO (BluepLus, Aquablue Special)
Thanks for your input on my potential replacement light fixture.

Already did and love the light
I'm glad I kept the money a middle man would have gotten. Today I read an article about LED aquarium lights that stated "American" fixtures are pretty much made primarily of Chinese guts with a 100-200 % markup by the time the consumer pays for the product. Most company's dont really do much R&D and charge a premium for Cree diodes that are really designed for residential use not aquarium. Not saying they aren't the best they are the most advanced but they are not really "reef" specific.. So in theory it's mostly the same stuff just put together by a Chinese factory VS an American company. I'm all for buying American. Always have with my cars ETC.. But I would rather not get ripped a new one for the somewhat the same equipment I can get for a third of the price. Plus LED's are progressing so rapidly any fixture you get will most likely be obsolete in a year or two. I'd rather save my money thank you very much.

I have tried contacting sunny for a week now. I want to order one of these lights but want to order one with a mix of wites but can't get a reply. Does any one else have a better way to contact them besides the contact now button?

These look very promising. I'm on vacation this week so I won't be able to post much.
The cost may be a bit high however. They're still working out the price.
