D2Mini and Tweaked, why did you guys add the LEDs? Just to tinker, or is there something lacking on the Cebu MH/T5?

I just got my new tank delivered 5 mins ago, and am debating back and forth between the cebu with a radium or making a larger version of my DIY radion/t5 hood.

Nice! I might pick up a set of electronic ballasts in case I want to try something other than Radiums at some point.

Do you guys think a single 250w 36" Cebu fixture will cover my 36x36 cube well? It has a center overflow on the back wall, so I will likely leave a straight line across that back bare and start my aquascape in front of it. So...maybe more like 36x28 or so?

And are you guys using their 20k bulb? A different color temp? A different brand bulb altogether?

I am pulling the glass to change the T5 bulbs for the first time next weekend......nervous about that!

Thanks, you two.

I use Radiums with their M80 ballasts.

Im thinking of putting this back up on my display. Does anyone know if the glass shield helps with heat??
