Well I got my first batch of lights in yesterday and installed them. The overall strip is 12" long and have a very unique effect in the water. The water sparkles under this light.

My aquarium has no corals and I do not plan on getting them. As long as these lights promote algae growth on my rocks I will be ok with them.

After mounting the three, I realized that my tank estimate of 6 lights was a bit off, I am going to need 9 in order to properly light this tank, which still puts me in line with replacing all 4 CF bulbs I have now.

I currently have the three bulbs on one side and the last remaining CF on the other, I'll get some pics up tomorrow so you guys can see the difference.

Thanks ..
