Ha, that's pretty crazy, I was thinking about almost the same color combination (except maybe 2 more UV's or a few cyan) on an 18 inch sink.

I was thinking about making two clusters similar to whats on the radions, just a little more spread out. I got the idea from someones diy thread, can't remember their name right now though. I'll see if i can track it down.

edit:
found it. The thread was by phasezero.

Thx for the replay. I will be having 3 of the 18 x 8.5 Heat-sink On my 72 x 18 x 21 Inch tank with (total 108 leds+ UV ). I have the Frames for the Leds/ Heat sink ready. Will be floating led fixture; mounted from the "L" brackets . phasezero was using a clustered approach is that better ? I am looking to get a more uniform light across . Thank you for the input
