DIY LED aquarium Light fixture with CREE XR-E, XP-G and MC-E goodness

For those of you fortunate to get tickets at the Reef stock event this Saturday in Denver Colorado you’ll see some (if not all) of the worlds best top LED lighting. However here at Reef Builders we are all DIY aficionados and Ryan dropped an email to us to show off his project. It is a 200 watt fixture that is made out of CREE XR-E, XP-G and MC-E LED lighting goodness. The LEDs are affixed to six separate heatsink strips. Each contains two strings of LEDs for a total of 6 strings, each driven by a 700ma buckpuck. The tank is 220 gallons and is also lit by 600 watts of T5 and the picture above shows about half of the LEDs on the tank and there are additional pictures below.

thanks Ryan!
