Nano LED

IloveLPS · Jul 17, 2016

So I've been trying to find the best LED for my nano tank I'm setting up. It's 12 gallons. I was looking at the Kessil a160we, but I wasn't sure if that'd be over kill on a tank of my size. I was perhaps trying to find something a little more inexpensive as well comparable to the Kessil. Predominately, I will have LPS in the tank.

Suggestions???

Have you heard about the Coral Box Moon LED? We offer it as the Nano Light, it has 50 watts of Cree LEDs, includes a gooseneck mount, and is controlled through a smartphone app for $180 shipped. Something like that would be a good fit for your tank.

I was going to suggest the Prime but @pablue was here first

this nice thing about the light is you can adjust them down if they are too much, as were as a inexpensive light you can do nothing but buy another light

Here is my nano tank (16gallons) setup with a 165W LED (running it at low intensity)

May I ask what's the width and length? I might recommend you Asta 120, new arrival from Lumini, 120w light, wifi controllable on Android and iOS app, timing and dimming, two manual knobs, you cam adjust 4 separate channels from zero to 100%. while kessil can only dim 2 channels. more info pls check: http://www.luminiaqua.com/lumini-asta-120/lumini-asta-120-tech/, just for your reference.^_^

The tank is 16 inches long I believe. Not sure on the width, but it's similar to that picture above with your light from what I can see, minus the back filtration.
