Help me find a light for my tank

[Hugo Garcia]

Hi guys, I'm starting a 20 gallon tank for 2 clownfish and maybe some coral in the future, but nothing fancy. I want a on budget led clip on light but I don't know what I should get.

I was looking at this ones:

#1 Kessil Tuna Blue A80 LED Light w/ mini gooseneck https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MTKJQ7Y/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_rpKKzbZCJMT94


#2 Hipargero Touch Control 30w CREE Nano LED Aquarium Light for Coral Reef Fish Tank Saltwater https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0727V8C5Q/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_OvKKzbMFS1MSC


#3 LED Aquarium Lights Nano Asta 20 Clamp Clip Remote Control Full Spectrum Multi-Color LED 4 Channels Programmable for Coral Reef Aquarium(Marine Version) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B071LJC8HL/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_-vKKzbSRH4FV9


Can you guys tell me which one would be more suitable.

And this is my tank:

An A80 is a great light but may be too small if you want to do coral (depending on type of corals- softies would be fine I'd think). If you could spring for an AI Prime HD that would be a great light with a lot of features. Have one on my 14g. Also have the A80 in my pico

I personally wouldn't go with any. If I had to choose Kessel hands down. Buy once cry once. If this is your first tank you might think fish only, but I'd almost guarantee you'll want at least a nem for the clowns. What is your price limit?

My price limit was around 80 bucks, but I'm starting think that I might have to go to 160, hehehe

I have an aquatic life 4 bulb t5 for a small tank. T5 can be cheaper but also allow you to keep any coral also. Something like this could be an inexpensive option.

For led I also have a small current marine that is pretty decent visually. Some corals you wouldn't be able to keep but my softie tank uses this light at under $200 for my 48" tank. 18" to 24" is cheaper yet.

Also I have one of these that are pretty well built:

By no means are these the best options out there but slightly over $10o are pretty good options at that price point, and better then spending $75 on the other IMHO. Unless you want to step up more.

T5 gives great growth with the right bulbs. I just hate replacing them

Hi Hugo Garcia, if you only keep fish, you can go with Hipargero 30w nano led aquarium lights, this light uses high power 3w cree leds, it will light your tank very well
