are you looking to retro something and need to know how many leds to add?

I got the kit from rapid led, I did add an extra 4 leds.

 

[maidia]

12-15 leds (3w each) will be good to go..

Is this good enough

No that won't be good enough. Honestly, if you are having $$ problems right now, best bet would be to look in the classifieds for used lights or stick with a FOWLR/low light coral tank until things turn around.

I may have an extra little fixture coming in shortly that would be OK for some low light stuff. I'll let you know when it shows up.

The issue you are going to run into is cost, especially if you want to keep the hood. You are going to need to retrofit something. Unless you want to DIY with C Channel you will be looking at something like this:

LEDs that will actually grow coral have a high initial entry cost.

For what your trying to do you'd be fine and the cost is pocket change ,run with it

It won't be too dim will it?

What exactly are you referring to?

 

[jvermeulen]

What lighting do you have now? Just the stock PC lighting?

I had halides and switched to LED's on mine. Your 4 moon lights won't do anything for you for coral growth. If you are looking for a full swap of lighting it could get costly but if you are trying to just go with supplemental lighting there are good LED strips out there.

Check out the ecoexotic strips.
