Several months back I retro'd my seamax 130 tank with an led package.
I am using an Ardunio controller.
My question pertains to what the correct light intensity should be and also the correct color temp.
My tank contains both LPS and SPS critters.
So far, I have been "eyeballing" it, comparing the color texture and intensity to tanks at my LFS.
I currently have a "stock" kit of 14 royal blue and 13 cool white LED's.
I have considered spending for a PAR meter, but as this is a kit, I figure somebody else must be
dealing with the same issues?!
Anybody with a similar system experimenting with different color LED's?
