    Ya I gave him the dimensions...He said 1 should work but would be safer with 2...I am going to get 1 and I can always add a second if its needed.

    Clownser's 10g diary

    So I called nano-customs today and the Rep thought I might need 2 LEDs of the 60 degree variety to light up my small 10g...Do you think that is needed?? Also are there any benefits to the 12k lighting over the 20k you recommended? Thanks and sorry for all the questions...just trying to do it...

    Clownser's 10g diary

    Ya I was actually just reading an article about lumens, K, and such and comparison of lights. I am definitely going to give the LEDs a go! Now just need to decide on Ledios or the Nanocustoms!
