Welcome from Mexico.

1500cc per minute = 1.5 lpm so it should be ok.

Looks like you have 12 LEDs, so they are probably 1 watt each. If so you can start with those.

Ok if you run them with 500ma then they should not be too much.

My driver its 1000ma i dont have more :( can i use just 6? 4? 2? Leds

[SantaMonica]

You will need to operate them in parallel: a series of 6 leds, in parallel with the other series of 6 leds. This will give 500ma to each led.

Hello again, i think its done, im running 2 three led series at 500mah is this enough? Im planning to use the other 6 leds for another UAS

Sounds like a good start.
