Thanks a lot Chris that's all I needed to know.

So someone gave me some blue life clear fx pro today which I was told was like chemipure elite. The jar contains all the media in one media bag ready to go. My only concern is that it says it treats 30 gallons but my tank is only 6, does this matter? Should I cut open the bag and divide it...

Uh huh lol... Good luck convincing her to do that she hasn't painted in like a year lol.

Does that mean your tank is still dry?

OMG! Did you finally get your tank up? lol

Thanks its been up for a little over 6 months. It currently has one small perc and a yellow clown goby, a few assorted zoas, some favias, a couple frogspawn, a lobo some ricordeas and a couple simple sps frags.

Here's my Fluval Edge.

Its sounds stupid but my moonlight is just a a charger for a phone that I striped and hooked up to a single royal blue led. (been doing it for over a year.) I unsoldered each led and attached them individually to the charger none of them lit up.

Will do thanks again for all the help guys!

Gotcha so if I was going to run 7 led's which driver would be best? http://www.rapidled.com/mean-well-eln-60-48d-dimmable-driver/ or http://www.rapidled.com/mean-well-eln-60-27d-dimmable-driver/ only reason I as is the 60-48 says 8-14 leds, can I use it with only 7? (sorry this stuff is like...

So switching to a stronger driver would be better since its max output was 700ma and the leds were 1500ma? and the leds were all wired together on the same driver one leds negative to the next leds positive and so on.

Will do Thanks for all the help guys I'm no electrician so I'm sure there's a huge possibility I could have fudged something up in the design of it. It was just odd to me because it has been running fine for six months.

Or maybe I shouldn't focus on why it happened but how to prevent it on the next light. Should I switch to a meanwell? or will this driver work? Adding a fan wouldn't hurt and if i'm going to run blues and whites is there any comination that works well together (I.E. XP-G and XT-E's...etc). and...

So have we ruled out everything else and came to the conclusion of heat? If so I can slap a fan on it and be happy, or is there another reason to it.

I can usually touch it without it being too hot its warm but bareable. I hooked them up to another driver I had for moonlights which is still working but wouldn't work with the bad leds. (I don't have a tester)
