Anyone used this light? Right now tank is planned to be FOWLR. My red sea 90s are just not strong enough to cover the depth of the new tank. Looking for a decent light but on a budget.

For a fowler? Why not go with something more basic? I am surprised you don't think the red sea lights are enough just for fish.

They are at 100% on both white and blues and I have so much shadowing in my tank that it just looks like there isnt enough light.

Hmm. Do you prefer shimmer or no shimmer? If you don't care about shimmer, a reef brite lumilight pro should work (the 50/50). A quanta or any other led bar would be fine. You can always add a dense led or similar light to add shimmer.

I do actually really like the shimmer that my kessil gives my biocube. I just cant afford kessils for my big tank

I wonder if the lomini kessil knockoff would work. Noopsychs also have a decent amount of shimmer. The pros have more white than the minis if you want less of a blue look.

Ive heard noops have a sketchy shipping history and customer service? Kinda put me off of them but I was looking at them for the shimmer look
