I'm planning a new tank and starting to think about lighting. I reckon led is the way to go but find the aquabeam range a bit confusing, not sure which to go for, the tiles or the strips and there seems to be a big difference in price. Does anyone have experience of this, my tank will be 2' deep.

Biggest issue with LED lighting is that it doesn't produce nearly as much UV as other forms of artificial light. Do you intend to have a lot of live plants? I also think my fish and inverts benefit from a little UV in their lives.
