I have a 30x18x11 Frag tank that I have a 4 bulb tek fixture on. I'm looking for more pop in color of my corals. I have Cree 3w LEDs on my big tank and love them but don't want to go through the hassle of building LED strips for this tank.

Sooo I'm looking for a rather cheap way to add some LEDs to make the tank LOOK better. If I could find some reasonably priced LED strips that would also help with growth that would be great but LOOK is the most important.

Anyone used stunner strips before? Are the any good?

Budget: Under $200
 
Stunner strips work very well for the price. I have 1 strip on my Red Sea Max 66gal tank and it covers roughly 1/4 of it SOLID and 3/4 of the tank enough to make the corals glow.

A reebrite strip would be very nice aswell, a 24in. one would easily cover the tank you have, and your corals would glow like crazy!

I personally like the reebrites "shimmer" better than the stunner strips,but everyone likes a differant look when it comes to lights.
 
I would think I'd want two reefbrites because 1 wouldn't work would it? I'd want one on each side of the fixture I'd think, and that would cost $400.... which is way over my budget.
 
IDK I think they have pretty wide coverage. Maybe someone who is running reefbrites currently will chime in.
 
I have the stunner strips on my bio cube and they are cool. But I have Reef Brites on my 120 gallon and thay are Awesome!! If you can get the Reef Brites i would recommend those.
