Thats the Challenge with LEDs, the white balance is SO hard to get right. I always end up in photoshop adjusting the RGB settings on it to get the real color. It looks great meowzer, and not bad first pics if I may add

Been a pleasure and glad you're happy with them. We can't say it wasn't without it's challenges but you guys did a heck of a job and I'm sure it looks great.
Now if we can just get him to build lights for the rest of the tanks you'll be all set.

LOL....The next thing I want him to do is a little work on the led set up on the 54G.....some wires need to be tightened up, and it has no dimmers......so we may add them....
I'm happy with my little T5 set ups on the other tanks....LOL.....SHHHHHH NO IDEAS

CONGRATS! It looks really, really good!
I know that you guys must be thrilled... Danny did a great job building it... you did a great job being the messenger and putting it together... and maybe yelling at Danny.. well maybe a bit (I don't know, but this could be a possibility)... Lol... and Corey and Shawn did a great job giving their advice/opinions along the way. Me, well, I just was there for support. Lol :)
I can only wonder how it would look at the lights on at 100%. The brightness is probably blinding!
It was a joy for me to follow this build from page one... thanks for doing it and I hope to see another cool build from y'all soon!

BAD NEWS.......for some odd reason the mooonlights keep dimming on their own.....so I had to turn them off :( TOMORROW (before he goes to work) Danny will have to investigate the issue
so for now I have 2 little led lights sitting on top so the tank is not in total darkness :(

Sometimes those star pads can be shorted internally. Have Danny do a continuity test by touching one probe to the positive pads on the stars and one probe touching the heatsink. Do that on the positive and the negative side of each of the moonlights and see if he gets tone on any of them. Thats what it sounds like to me.
