Hi guys, new here.

What kind of Led setup you would recommend, i'd like to encourage wingo but am confused with all the options he is giving.

My setup for the moment is a Fluval 6 Gal. with 6 gal sump.

For light I have
3 strip of 3 leds by trumen in the hood,
1 of the original hagen mr16 leds
1 10" 4 leds from trumen on top of the glass.

I was thinking of adding 3 more of these 10" 4 bulbs

Do you think that wingo's can surpass this?
I dream of being able to have SPS thrive in the middle of the tank and some LPS and Softies on the sides.

tx!

Besides waiting for recommendations from other members, you can also check out the PAR data in this link. The first one is what you need.

those lights look good!!! you say they are much brighter in real?

I also have difficulty taking shots of my tank, it looks blue but in reality I have more of a 12-14 kelvin. which I like alot.

I will wait for wingo's pricing.

By the way edge2011. Be CAREFUL with that torch coral in such a small aqua. I had to get rid of my Hammer about a month ago because I had major chemical warfare in there. (Yep, humans did not invent this..)

It's sad because it was my center piece. But all my other corals have responded extremely well to it's extraction.

Thanks for the tip on Torch. So far don't think it caused any harm...
Regarding the light - It is brighter in person. Unless you have a decent camera, it is hard to capture the true colors. That's why I can't really get a good pic with only the blue lights on.

To be honest, I have not used the fan yet as my tanks temperature has been stable with no heat issues from the light. I did turn it on when I first got it and at top speed you can definitely hear it but at lower speeds not so much.
I also have one of the first designs of the savior so not sure if the production unit is any different.
