JBJ 12g project

A friend gave me their one month old nano tank because of a house purchase and no time for upkeep. So first thing I did was gut the filter and purchase lots of LR to fill the tank and sump area. Then setup the display rock area and sprinkle some crushed coral substrate done. Came out nice. But then I decided to order some leds! So here are some pics before details Breakout.

Ordered 18 bridgelux leds. 7 RB 7 CW 2 WM 2 UV. I also got 2 pink leds as a possible replaceable options if the color doesn't pop. But ill figure that out later. Here's the kit

Heatsink fits perfect into heatshield and I drilled and tapped and threaded a bolt threw

Progress. Screwed heatsink to original metal reflector. Installed a modified power compact bulb tie down to hold front heatsink in place. Aligned leds in place and glued and screwed. Wired fans and put all the wires threw the fixture.
