    Probably will feed about 2 cubes a day.

    You can make the scrubber 10 X 15 cm, and put as many LEDs on it that the driver will operate.

    Did you want upflow or waterfall?

    I think i am going to use about 9 red led on a 20wat driver so
    All the led are at 75% of their max power.
    I maybe later ad a extra driver but.
    It is going to be a while when all fish are inside
    Can I immeadlty use the scrubber on ful power hen feeding only 0,5 cube a day

    Yes can use the scrubber right away. Make it 2-sided.
