Hello5
I have a 125 gallon reef aquarium the is 5 feet by 18 inches wide. Currently I have 2 T5 actinic couple with 2 150 W MH bulbs and would like to replace with LEDs. I was thinking that if I bought the 48 light kit with the cool whites, I could mount them on a 48 inch base with 2 longer heatsinks to illuminate the entire tank. Would these be spaced too far appart to adequately cover the tank. Please advise.
Thank you
Erik

Two 24″ heatsinks with 36 LEDs each will replace your current lighting. For better growth I would recommend 36 Royal Blue, 12 Cool White and 12 XP-G for a high noon on each heatsink this would be the equivalent of two 400 Watt MH and suitable for almost any coral or clams
