Budget LED light? What light to buy?

[ray skinner]

I have a 120 gallon mixed sps LPS reef tank looking to get another led light set up for.
Have a 900 dollar budget what way should I go?

That was exactly the thread I was trying to link him to. I just couldn't find the R2R one....it's a steal of a deal.

Are those dimmable with a timer or would I need a controller for them

Just hit him up and ask. Jorge is pretty cool, I am sure he will have no issues with answering your questions.

Thanks ca2or!! Not only are they dimmable they have a dusk dawn mode, cloud mode, and weather mode. Also not only does each individual modules have built in timers but they are wifi capable and communicate with each other with the controller provided. They dim and increase by an actual 1% not like Chinese leds where 1% brightness looks exactly like 5%. They have true bridgelux diodes and not rebranded chinese diodes. They are currently pending but if you're interested and don't mind waiting till Saturday I'll know more then. You can PM me for more info. Thank you.

Ocean Revive makes great lights and you can't beat the price. The Arctic S026 is manual dim fot each channel but on a budget you won't find a nicer build quality and output.

After seeing the results that Adam at Battlecorals gets with the reefbreeders models, I wouldn't look anywhere else personally. I would avoid reef radiance lights, but that's just me.
