Definitely get one of those RapidLED 4x moonlight kits. Under $20 and Strong enough to fluoresce all your corals. Trust me, 4 LEDs will be plenty for a 90!

do i need to find my own heat sink...i dont even know what that is. i think id rather have something that i just need to attach and plug in. not good with electrical work

The 1w LEDs in the kit actually under drive at like .7w each, and come with berquist thermal adhesive pads for mounting. As long as you stick them to a flat surface that can dissipate a little heat, you do not need a heatsink for them. Just add wire and solder to install.

Are the adhesive pads like doublesided tape?

do u thnk i can glue on two moonlight leds on a par38 bulb? do u thnk that will work bro?

 

[Jrodriguez682]

solder huh? ok, if i ordered the parts is anyone willing to put them on for me, and for how much?

 

[FishBeard]

I would but I don't know the next time I would be out in your area to help. Honestly, soldering is really easy, and with a kit like this would be a great learning experience for down the road if you ever assemble an entire DIY led fixture.
