So idk how nobody has done this but what the heck! I have a 6 bulb Dimmable Sunpower on my SPS tank. Reefbrite slapped on the side looks too gaudy for me. Initially was thinking of Aquatic Life Hybrid with the RB in the middle but this sounds more fun! That and I want something with more 420 in the spectrum.
So my plan is remove 1 bulb and reflector and add a nice low profile heatsink and a variety of LED, probably 2 to 1 ratio of Semiled Violet 410-420 and Cree 450 Royals. Measurements say I have room for 80° lenses as well. Shouldn’t cost much more than $100. With high quality LeDs it should make more PAR than an XHO strip I’m hoping.
