im going to make my own led lights
i was wondering if i have a 110 gal tank
how many wats do i need per led light and how many leds should i get to make it nice and bright?
 
I just finished my build.....take a look and if you still have any questions, I'll help if I can. The good thing about LED's are that since they are built in strings, it's easy to just add another one for more brightness. I would most likely suggest 40 degree or 60 degree optics. That is a lot of height to get the light through.
