Hello everyone! Did you ever have the days of terrible lights. For example when you turn the blue light on near the end of the day to see your pretty corals, and you can barely see them because of your lights. Yea sucks don't it! Well today i have decided I'm not buying one more coral into my problem is fixed! my tank is 48" long and 12" Fat.

Must Have
+White and blue light
+way to mount it if it can't sit on the glass
+and one great price :)

Even if you know where to get one i would very much appreciate it if you shared such information!
 
Personally I love my Kessils but they are costly. Never used them but I hear good things with those cheap chines black boxes
 
I have the ocean revive lights on my work wonders

I've become a believer in the Reefbar Pro. It is made by a company in Texas and is priced really well. I got a 36" for $130 with sunset timer and was quoted $150-160 for a 48. It has 36 3w LEDs, the timer is great, and colors are wonderful. If it will be your only light source, I'd say get 2.
Or....I am also a big lover of T5 plus LED. So with a tank that thin, get yourself a 2 bulb T5 kit and a Reefbar Pro LED strip.
 
Sorry i Can't figure out why the pic is grainy:
-48" 4 bulb Odyssea fixture
-Currently using Red Sea bulbs, but will be switching to ati to see if I can notice a difference in my corals growth. Red Sea works just fine however
- comes with four mounting legs.
-built in timer for lights.
- 4 blue led moonlights
 
I have two of the aquatic life xs-uv on my 75 and they are outstanding. I have two of the AI primes, one on my frag/invert qt and one on my bio-cube. I really like the program on my phone aspect of the AI prime but, I just don't think they are even in the same ballpark as my aquatic life. Aquatic life has great customer service and seems to make a great product, but the best I can tell they have little to no marketing. The only negative thing I have to say about the lights is you have to hook up a computer to the fixture to program them. I messed around with programs until I have my current one and I am pretty pleased with the coral growth and color. I think they sell for $269 for the 14". I like them enough that I am considering buying another for my new cube.
