    Definitely red but hard to tell if 1w or 3w. Can you ask the people you got them from what wattage they are?

    Unfortunately no, just to be sure I would replace them myself with 3w if I knew how. The leds are encased in epoxy

    I think they are 3w.

    A growth pic after a week would be nice.

    As promised, 1 week of growth :-/, I started to vodka dose and if it doesn't pick up I will abandon it all together and go bio pellets I guess. It's unfortunate as I really loved the idea of a working scrubber

    Very rare to see white strings on green rocks. I guess that's why you are here though.

    If phosphate is still zero, maybe you can try dosing potassium phosphate.

    Well if most of the parts are green, then there is enough light.
