I think you will be happy. If I wasn't running T5's I would habe glady gone with Noop's.

21LEDUSA Dot Com. They have Reef Bars and ReefBar Pro, in all white light, hanging clips available. If you want a Controller, get the SunSetter, otherwise plug in into a cheap timer. Personally I’d Spring for the SunSetter. No fans on the lights to break later on.

I’d say Ocean Revive T247-B Full Spectrum Dimmable LED Reef Light. I have 14 of them and love them. Had them for over 3-1/2 yrs without any problems

I was thinking Nicrew hyper reef. They are 0-10v so they are dimmable. They can be controlled by apex or any other controller that uses the 0-10v. I will have to check out the noops. Can wait curing my dry rock right now.

Can anyone recommend a budget LED brand/model, I.e. under $200. I‘m looking to cover a 12 inch x 28 inch space. And preferably one with a quiet fan. I have 3 reefbreeder economy lights currently, and was thinking something similar. I still have a dark spot in my tank that this light addition would fill. There’s dozens of brands on Amazon, but I don’t know the good from the bad.

Alternately I could rearrange my lights and use 2x spotlights, each covering a 12x14 space if that is cheaper.

Other than reef brite strip, you can find in R2R marketplace an Ai Prime hd light for about $150
While Noopsyche would work, they just had a price increase and added Tax making them closer to $250

Others would be china lights such as Nicrew, and vivarspectra.

This one $55

This product is no longer available.
