    I personally wouldn't do DIY LEDs for 2 reasons...

    1. They look like DIY, unless your really nifty..

    2. I like to keep as much guess work out of anything I do, I'd rather pay more for plug in and play with a product that has some R&D behind it..
    i agree with tony, also sergio make sure you get proper optics, as your tank is 30 inches and punching through that much water is going to be a challenge. you know what im going to say......MH is the better way to go with your tank, 6'x2'x30" is a beast tank for sure

    IME ..

    With MH there is no guess work besides what combo to run..

    with LEDs it's all about what color what intensities.... And there's always that thought if you crank up a certain color will it improve things.. Lol, I have had the sols and now the vega's and I'm always guessing my settings, I think I found a great setting but the thoughts never rest...

    And I would agree unless you plan on dumping some serious cash on some awesome lights
