A Community and Forum For Aquaponic Gardeners

Has anyone tried using Salt Water Aquarium LED Lights?

It seems like the LED fixtures are cheaper for Reef Aquariums than grow lights. I don't know if that is because of the application or quality/intensity of the final product. http://www.ebay.com/itm/3PCS-Bridgelux-Full-Spectrum-120w-Dimmable-...

They're definitely prettier lights, and don't look as harsh.

Any experience or thoughts, let me know.

I'd imagine it has to do with the intensity of the lighting. Unfortunately. You're right in saying that reef lights are prettier than grow LEDs. Unless you've decided to double your greenhouse as a disco-tech floor :)

Hmm, that might not be a bad idea; do plants grow better under the influence of heavy dance music?
