Chaeto reactor LEDs
Looking for suggestions on lights to wrap around a reactor for growing cheato. If you have used a specific item and had good results please share a link to it.

Chose this one simply because it was mentioned in another thread with pics proving it's growth potential. Here is mine for reference: http://reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2657457

The GFO was off for months before I put the chaeto in. I wouldnt suggest doing both at the same time or over lapping.

I went with the Marine Depot strip because I knew the spectrum of light would be correct.

I used a two little fishes reactor and a strip of "grow" leds from amazon...I made sure to get the one with the end on it...Soldering to the two tiny little bits gets frustrating.
