Two Questions (LED and Reef Books)

[jmbaltz]

I am looking to pick up a good reef book that talks about propagation, fragging and all types of corals.

Also I was looking to get everyones opinion on LED lighting replacement for my 28g JBJ Nanocube. I found a unit that will be able to fit right in to my existing hood. It would be replacing my existing compacts so it would be an immediate upgrade and would help immensely on my temp control issues. Its made by ProLED but is listed on ebay.... so I am worried about it.

Here is the link;

Thoughts would be awesome and greatly appreciated. Also this is my first tank and is only 5 months old... so if you choose to use this as a teaching opportunity I would appreciate that as well. :wave:

Thanks!

there's really nothing to fragging, just cut it up and let it heal.

Maybe a 18 LED set up on a 12 incher from reefledlights,xpe and xpg set up,or par 30 or par 38 bulbs.

I am in Mount Prospect not too far from Palatine. You are welcome to stop over and see 24 LEDs I put in my Biocube 29 gallon hood.

Did you build the unit yourself? I don't have much electrical understanding...

Yes, I built it myself.
