No that was not me, but I've made a couple of postings there.

The problem with that experiment was that he probably manged to
saturate the lighting with both LED:s and PC:s in the same type of small
tank so the growth-rates were about the same.

Also notice the *massive* heat sinks he used with the LED.s

A lot of wasted energy there.
