    I agree with you 1 watt should do great. But 10 gallon is small. Im using a 12 in wave point and its bigger than the tank. They make smaller ones, but even those are big footprints.
    Which has the smallest footprint, comes with 3 year warranty, and has the largest selection and LED power. And can moved to any position?

    I should add Im a big fan of pico tanks. You can put them anywhere.

    My son has a par38 bulb over his 10gallon and it is really powerful. Mine is controllable via remote and it is at 60%. I may raise it up higher because it is a bit spotlighting. But I like it just need to raise it.

    Switched over to the dark side of lighting. LEDs. The force is strong with this one!

    I think these par38 and par30s could be the next wave. Heres a link for a par30 with specifications and a great review.

    My sons needs to be raise a foot. It looks really nice but like I said it will be a total 14-18 inches off of the water. Right now it is only 7 inches.

    That's my 12" high output wavepoint led on top of my 10 gallon ATO reservoir...

    It's no way bigger than a standard 10 gallon tank.....

    v




    looks real good but I can see the spot light...

    plus if you raise it your going to have even more light spillage...

    koa(mike) modded his wavepoint to add onto the hood that is provided to help with spillage.... See if he chimes in.

    By any chance do you have the specifications on the wavepoint. We have one on a 5 gallon or smaller tank. lol Thats why its bigger. I have no clue what these wavepoint LEDs are?
