New to lights

[TeresaRN]

hi everyone,

I’m a beginner reefer. I have a 50 gallon set up and recently purchased a used set up for $125. My question is what kind of lights are these? They came with the set up.

The owner was selling it at a local reef store I frequently visit. He is a dentist that lost power Friday night at his dentistry and on Monday morning everyone in the tank was gone. He wanted to sell quickly.

Lights look like cheap LEDs..I might be wrong though ...is there a name of any sort..or info on it ...?

Here’s more. No name or info. The back looks like aluminum.

That is an old LED bar can't recall the brand but I have seen them. Some of the leds are burnt on it.

Just toss it.

They are waterproofed and the bulbs are SMT so you really can't DIY replace them unless you are really good at it.

If your looking for a cheap light for a 50g ..look on Ebay for the Chinese black boxes (preferably with wifi) 165w ...good first starter lamps for around 130dollars new or 60-75 dollars secondhand ..would be my advice ..
