Just ordered the lighting so I'll let you know how it goes.

Have you ever used LED strips before? I use them on some dart frog setups, they seem to grow terrestrial plants quite well. Do you consider 4032 lumens over a 30cm deep 180 litre tank low lighting? I'm sticking the strips to some steel channelling, these can just sit across the tank without...
