How are your clams doing bro? 2 ATI tubes sufficient? How many hours you blast them daily?

Boy... you should write your testimony for my ATI review... 2 ATI tubes (1 white 1 blue), 2.5ft distance, 8 hours... and your clam is opening big big?!? Damn... ATI rocks!!! Now when was the last time you hear people claiming MH a must for keeping healthy clams? :D

another view: i dunno if its too bright or just nice.

connected the LEDs parallel, using 5VDC adaptor, a little high for the LEDs. hope they wun fuse out that fast.

anyway this is a trial set for my tank. fixed it up temporarily to see how moonlights go.

one of the sets:

juz as i did the final test before mounting the lights back onto the tank, the middle LED blew out. tot its loose connection, but now think that its blown. so upsetting. but nvm la. trial only. see how long can the LEDs last at 5V...

LEDs are pretty cheap la. but juz wondering why they are blowing off one by one. think i really need to get the step down adaptor from hall. haha.. nvm. gonna go get more LEDs soon. and make a proper one. but effect is pretty nice i must say.
