What are the details of your build, John?

Let me know when you're ready to dive in, Michael. :)

Im still in the planning stage, however I think I am going to do 96 Cree LEDS with a 50/50 ratio, and using dimmable drivers. I am putting this over a 60" tank (120 gallon). There isnt much to this DIY project once you know what kind of LED's your using. I am still researching Drivers. I know the 2 ive seen people using are the meanwell drivers and buckpucks. The biggest thing I need to figure out is the base to mount everything on and I would like to enclose it with some sort of protection for corrosion. Also, I have seen where people are using marine epoxy to mount the LED's, however I will be using the thermal paste and screw down method, that way its not so hard to replace an LED.
 
Nice, man. After building Bills, which is also a 50/50 mix, we are adding another string or two of royal blues. I highly recommend doing more of a 60/40 mix. Your par won't suffer at all due to the RBs having a TON of par, FWIW. :) Also, neutral whites tend to be all the rage right now, too, along with adding a few regular blue LEDs for some green. Hopefully we'll have 2 warm whites (since our others are cool whites) and 4 blues over Bill's tank to pop some more colors on Saturday if they come in. In addition to adding more RBs.

Yeah, I would tend to agree that a 60/40 mix would be good. I am very interested in seeing this set up in action. Keep me posted.

You can alway's come over and take a look when we get them complete and running on the controller doing sunrise/sunset with all the accent bulb colors added.
