(or would dimmable be a better idea?)


also what kinds of coral will i be able to keep with this LED KIT?

also would that dim all the LEDS?
or will it dim the blues/whited separately?


should i even bother dimming?
will i want it later on?

For this kit itself, it's 1 driver to control both white and blue. It would dim both. For the "D" driver, you need a POT to dim it. They sell them on their website as well or the shack has them. For the "P" driver you would need a controller. Looks like the kit actually comes with an AC adapter, but its for the fan. Same as the POT, rapid sells them or the shack... just be aware of polarity, amps, voltage.

It seems like you already have a kit in mind, but nanotuners.com is very popular for nano upgrades. I used them in the past when I upgraded my 29, and the people there are very helpful.
