Led light, is this enough?
I have a 5 feet long by 24 wide 30 tall tank.
Was thinking about 288 watts of 3w Cree LEDs. Mix would be 2/5 white and 3/5 blue. 60 degree optics. 96 3w leds total. Is this enough for sps? More than enough? |

If it is DIY, better get more varities of LED's, such as adding royal blue, lower end of red, upper end of UV (violet), etc.
