Hello R2R
Hello reefers, We have put together my liquid cooled fixture that is made of 1/2" copper tube and "L" bows , Originally it was built by Paul for his tank but I took his design and made changes and took it to next level. I want to thank my friend James who helped me put together. Next fixture is for his 220 reef tank. Here is my version of water cooled led fixture that I have put together for my 350 gal system. size is 36" x 34" and concept is same but little different design, I went to Paul's place and saw this fixture in person and let me tell you it looked neat, clean and no heat what so ever and it was light enough to handle. I guess we are crazy enough to try new things, Fixture is being cooled by water and then there is 12 v pump that circulates water from the copper frame and then heater core that I bought online and there are 24v high pressure fans that push the air through the heater core. Even after running the light all day 100% intensity, When i tough the tube it is not warmer than my body temperature. I am using almost every color pf led that is available in the market which are listed below and itemized
Copper tube 1/2"
10w UV Epistar - 8pcs
10w 20k Epistar - 8 pcs
3w Royal Blue Cree - 65
3w Cool White Cree - 30
3w Pink Epistar - 10
3w Orange Cree 0 10
3w Green Cree - 10
3w Red Cree - 10
On the deep end of the tank which is all 4 sides of fixture I am using 40 Deg lens to push light to sand bed and then 2nd and 3rd all around 60 deg and then in the middle where my rock work is very high I am using 120 deg. Please send message if you guys have any questions or comments
Thanks and Happy Reefing
