I am building a 5gallon “marineland portrait”
For my wife to be a coral only tank. I’m trying to find a budget friendly light for this small tank. 9.5x9.5 and 14 inch tall.

"Budget friendly" is a relative term. What is you price range?

50-75$. Kinda looking at the aqua knight. Idk if it would be a good choice for such a small tank.

The Orbit Marine Nano LED light worked well for me and my 15g. I later upgraded it because it was not what I was looking for, but it grew softies and LPS well.

I think it's around 60 bucks now? Not to sure.

Thanks for listing the dimensions of the tank. I would look at Noopsyche K7 Mini. Similar wattage to AI Prime, but 80 bucks.
