Best affordable lights

[The.Reefing.Reefer]

I got a Coralife 4 Bulb H.O. T5 with moonlight set up but the leg brackets only hold it about 3 inches above the water and i feel like it may be burning my coral. I cant hang them because my ceiling is like 10ft up there. So im looking for good LED lights like Noopsyche K7 II or similar. Any advice would be great!

Welcome to R2R.

Tons of lighting options. A little about the tank, what coral you are keeping, and budget may help narrow it down. And we love pics as well.

So my tank is 40 gal breeder and its mixed with Sps, Lps, and softies and some fish. Here it is during the day. (I took the clay pot out cause the rbta that came in it moved out and a few coral died when it was in).

Max 400 altogether. I know ima need 2 for my 40 gal

 

[Tuffyyyyy]

I think the Noopsyche is going to be the best for that budget and your tank.
