    DIY LED for a 48"x24"X24" tank

    I could machine it for you but you won't like the prices. The materials alone will run you over $500 plus shop time. 24x24 is a large size and price/increasing thickness is highly disproportional. I suggest going with multiple strips and daisy chaining them together to keep prices down...

    Par meter

    clive from nanotuners tells me it's the opposite, leds have better penetrating power. The HQI had a wider, more even spread but at its brightest, it was barely visible compared to the fringe of the LED fixture. With a 12x12 area, my main concern was Raw par and not so much spread
