I really like my LED's. They are DIY LED's from a company called modularled.com in canada. They seem to do pretty good for my tank as long as I don't blow them up which I have done twice now lol.

Oh yeah, as long as they are all working properly they are in a 1:1 ratio of cool white to royal blue, and I like the coloration this gives over my reef.

I have them on 3 heatsinks over my 6' 180g tank, and it gives good coverage, IMO.

If you don't you could always take a new pic and post it

Yeah I really should get around to doing that, maybe some day I will take some new ones of it but those are kind of boring pics to me and I always forget to take them when I do pull out the camera.

Also forgot to mention these LED's from modularleds.com are 3w cree leds too! I like the ones from rapidled.com as well and I know they are more of a favorite choice for people.

Nope no reds or greens, although you can get them..... I haven't quite decided for sure if I will add them or not, my friend has them and hates the red says it is to obvious and stands out bad (from rapidled.com). So I am kind of undecided as to if I will add them or not when I redo the heatsinks (as I blew quite a few messing around with stuff not long ago lol

I have greens and neutral white instead of red on current fixture and it looks great (from rapid) but new fixture will have reds as well. I'll have this week sometime and let you know how it looks:)
