Turne dout fantastic. I was able to salvage the housing the original
Coralife Lunar lights used that had Luxeons in them, that went south, so other than a new found brightness n the tanks, yu can not even tell they were ever replaced. They look fine. I also added Lunars lights to various other fresh and sal****er tanks we have. I was quite busy with wiring them all up but the payoff was well worth it. Using all the old wall warts were necessary, buying some good LEDS, resistors and some odds and ends, I wound up equipping a total of 15 tanks with lunar lights which contain anywhere from 1 LED to 8 LEDS....depending on setup of tank. Even the fresh water stuff looks good.......What really made a few of the tanks (SW type) look fantastic is the additon of UV LEDS....wow, the critters look like one of those black velvet with florescent paint posters lit up with a black light.....but the balance of the tank is mainly still dark.......Used in conjunction with the blue LEDS really makes stuff pop out at you, but the UV only look is pretty neat as well. I have em switched independantly so I can change the mood lighting....... -- \\\|/// ( @ @ ) -----------oOOo(_)oOOo--------------- oooO ---------( )----Oooo---------------- \ ( ( ) \_) ) / (_/ The original frugal ponder !
