dattofish Posted November 7, 2012 Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 been trying to search where to get a big long light for my new tank an was wondering if could use led lighting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F15hguy Posted November 7, 2012 Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 how long, they pretty much can do just about anything with LED's nowdays. just don't try to skimp with them, you'll save money in the long run but not if you have to replace them cause they are dodgy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dattofish Posted November 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 tanks going to be 2.1m long, got any sites to check out? just been trying to find a site that sells long lights an then thought if they do led lights? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F15hguy Posted November 7, 2012 Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 not to sure of the name but there is a really good shop in Tauranga that specialises in LED technology. My dad put me onto them. Can;t remember their details as I was too tight to spend money n it (plus I got a fluro hood for free at the same time) Ask Sheepsnana, I'm pretty sure he has the contact details.

smidey Posted November 10, 2012 Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 for my 2.0m tank i use two 3 foot light hoods Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David R Posted November 10, 2012 Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 I've done the same as Smidey for long tanks, just use a combination of shorter fluros, certainly the cheapest/easiest option. You could look at making your own LED rack to fit the length of the tank if you're not afraid of a bit of DIY.,, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
