I was wondering if anyone uses the UV color of the ecoxotic stunner strips and if they were worth it to buy. I noticed foster and smith only sell the 12" ones and it'd be sweet if they sold the 36" size since my tank is 72".

also would these even been bright enough to add supplementation to my 125 gallon??

If not, I was just thinking of making a DIY blue LED strip myself :) Just wondering people's opinions on these.

they dont really ad any "brightness" the only purpose of them is to add "pop" to the glow of your corals. I think you would be better with a blue led rig instead.

good luck!

thanks! I don't really want to add more light but rather add that "pop" in the corals that I feel I am missing with T-5s. I just never hear much about them on here. Really stinks the UV ones don't come in 36" :(
