Coral LED

[samue202]

Hey everyone,

I currently have a corallife quad T5 light over my 46 bowfront but I'm looking to use an LED instead. I want to eventually have a Reef tank so I'd like the light to support corals. I've been looking at these two options. Does anyone have opinions on them or have other suggestions? Thanks!

Actually I like your current fixture better than either of those and your fixture will grow corals just fine, but I understand the desire to go LED.

I believe Reefbreeders offers a better product.

My big issue is that I'm living in an apartment and I'm not sure I'll be able to hang things easily. Thus I'm looking for more options that have the legs to hang on the glass top or edge of my tank. Any suggestions appreciated.

Your first link would do you just fine. I've been running 2 similar ones over my tank for quite some time now. They are just as good as the name brand ones.

I went into my lfs and they recommended the radion xr30w. It's pretty expensive but at the same time I'd love to buy a fixture I can use 5+ years at least even if I upgrade. Anyone have experience with those?
