I was replying to a PM from ReefPete 4 times tonight, but I keep having a computer BSOD; looks like the mobo is on it's way out. Not a cheap one, either!
My reply to him was on the same topic. Fish and softies don't require the type of light that the SPS's do. I'd do two 16" X the widest heatsinks you can get for future expandability. then, I'd use 24 LED's on a side, probably 2-4 warm whites, 2-4 cyan, 8-10 cool whites, and 8-10 royal blues per side. 4 Meanwell 60D-48's, 2 for the warm whites and the cool whites, one side per controller, and ditto for the royal blues and the cyans. If you wanted to really add some color and balance to the tank, I'd add 2 greens, 2 Luxdrive reds (Wall_Tank, input on those reds you were showing me?) per side, all on one 30D-27 driver. I'd use 70 deg optics on the cool whites and the royal blues, and 80 degree optics on everything else.
With a discount code, you could get the hardware from LED Reef Lights for probably around $350-400, and then you need to adapt your canopy or build one.
