Cheap Moonlight

If I want to rig up some blue LEDs to use as a moonlight, can I use cheap strips like this one
http://cgi.ebay.com/15x-LED-Aquarium...ht_3240wt_1165

and if so would i need more than one strip to adequately light up a 30 gal tank?

Thanks

that seems like a good price. keep in mind you'll need a power supply for that as well, wheich you can buy at radio shack. For a 30 gallon that will be plenty of light.
