Good morning everyone!!!

So I am building a custom stand for my new 75 gal tank. I am using 2 Black Box led lights... BUT they only have 1 plug for both channels, so I am not able to turn the blues on first and leave on after the whites, I do this now with my T5 with Moonlight leds. The reason i do this is for sun up, sun down, so i dont freak the fish out but the bright lights just turning on.


Here is my questions...

Like i said im building a stand. Instead of a canopy i was building a metal & wood shelf. I will hang the black box leds from that. I wanted to buy a Blue LED strip to use for moon light and "sun up" before my main lights come on.

Has anyone built something like this?
Is there a programmer i could use easily to hook only to the blue led strip?

I was looking at using something like this:

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
 
A lot of the led strip lights you buy from marinedepot have a controller with it or is bought seperately. Check those out. Im not familiar with the one you posted but seems like the same idea.
