I was looking for a ready to use library to control my SMD5050 color led strip, and I stumbled across FASTLED.IO library , but after reading trough their website I didn't find anywhere the support for SMD5050 color LED strip. Does anyone knows another "ready to use" animation library? Are FASTLED.IO suitable anyway? Thanks

No. FastLED is for addressable LEDs (like the WS2812B). Yours aren't addressable. You just need to set the colour you want with the PWM outputs of your Arduino. Changing the PWM values is not hard and you don't need a library to do it for you.
