Yep optics will narrow them downward for deeper tanks like mine, if you wanted you could still get the lenses they come free anyways and would be useful if you decide to go deeper anyways, HeatsinkUsa will not have the necessary drill bits as they do not drill, however rapidled does drill but they only have certain size heatsinks which most likely wont be the one you need, as for drills and drill bits just go to the hardware store like home depot and ask for drill bits that will go through thick aluminum and buy atleast 2 of those drills, they tend to snap or bend on you. As for the thermal paste it is in fact for attaching it to the heatsink and is for dissipating heat away from the actual led to the heatsink without these your leds will get quite hot, I only used thermal paste to attach them to the heatsink and it was included in the package, to give you an idea how strong it is, I accidently glued a star to the heatsink in the wrong place and to get it off I had to carefully take a screw driver and hammer to get it off of the heatsink without breaking the led and it worked but I had to hit it quite hard.
As for the transformer I am not sure with electronic jargon but the plugins for the drivers are basically the male end of an extension cord cut off at about 3ft worth of cord, as for the dimmer it is the same voltage as a cell phone charger, and that is about it, as for the fans they need there own power supply as well I cant remember which one is the equivalence to a phone charger.
Just figured it out the transformer that powers dimming controller needs to be 10v just get an old cell phone charger and cut the part that plugs into the phone off of the cord, the transformer for the fans is 12v and to give you an idea I use one transformer to power 4 120mm fans.
