Looking for new LED for nano

[Intheflesh]

We've been looking to replace the solar flare that is on our 10 gallon nano. It is 5 x 3watt. It has 1 actinic, 2 10K and 2 6.7K. With the whites on, it completely washes out all color in the tank, and we're looking to change it for something else.


These are NOT my pics:

We want something thats still low profile, preferably on a goose neck, and no hanging from the ceiling (GF's request)
LEDs don't need to be adjustable. Looking for something with a lot more blue look. trying to stay ~$100

Why not just replace two or three of the white leds with blues?

I have 2 PAR 38 Full Spectrum bulbs similar to the ones below over my frag tank for almost 2 years now with excellent results.

You can add 3 strips to this setup.

I'd recommend a Kessil A150. Though, with the sale at Bulk Reef Supply you can get an A350 for $300.

I love the looks of this one! Only 3 watts per strip though. don't know if that is enough light(?) The tank is mostly mushroom and acans. Right now, we have 15 watts of LED.

Any update on this? I'm glad you posted this thread, my next tank will be a rimless 12 gallon and I was considering the Deep Blue Solar Flare until I read this post. What did you go with?

Bumping an old thread... Brian to answer your question, I still have the Solar Flare. I have been eyeballing an AI nano, although it is above my budget. But its the closest thing I can find that I want, and plus its controllable.
