Any suggestions? Upgraded my 13w 6.5k to 92w 12k FW with good yields.

I love my new lighting fixture actually got two used for 40 bucks with power supplies a 92 W 12 K and a 30 W 10K LED with independent power supplies, had to use one of them for parts and have to replace some of the LEDs to give it a more freshwater look.

Any suggestions on what colors I should add for LEDs ? Plants seem to love it growing much much faster than what the smaller lamp but my roommate Remedy my blue crayfish of three years continues to redecorate the tank as he sees fit in other words rip the plants out of the substrate , lol

Great ready for an algae bloom. That is a lot of light for your slow growing plants. I would recommend adding more red spectrum. Even high end LED tend to not have enough red leds.

Cool, I was thinking red and green 3w led buttons to balance off the Blue. No bloom so far.
