Hey guys I am wanting to install a led setup on my nc12 dx. I was wanting to use 8 LEDs on one driver but am not sure if that's going to be enough. So I am really thinking about doing 12 with two separate drivers to control my blue and white separately because I am also worried about the color not working out right. I was thinking about using 6 12k 3 watt LEDs, 2 19k LEDs, and 4 Blue LEDs. I was thinking if I put them on a dimmer I can get the color just right. Let me know what y'all think our anything you would change as this is my first led project and I know I will need some help. Also I really like the stock color of my nc12 dx with 2 50/50 bulbs so I am trying to get close to that color
 
i have a diy LED fixture on my 24 nano cube. i have one driver running 6 leds and one driver running 8 leds and other running 16, all are Dimmable. and then i have 3 leds on a non dimmable driver. talk to bill @ reefLEDlights.com and he will help ya out and let you know what you need.
