Ok I have never experienced any LED lights but am wondering what is the difference in the battery operated 5 LED strips that you can get at a home improvement store for 30 bucks opposed to a high tech 500 buck light made "just for reef tanks". The ones at the HI store come in all lengths and I know one would fit in my hood and it says each is 20 watts. Would this work or do you need a certain type for a tank. These things are very bright and some with more power are plug in and look very nice. If someone knows please inform me because that is a huge difference in price. Thanks
