Hi all,
I am newly back to the hobby, fresh off of a 10+ year hiatus. I recently bought a used 150 gal tank(72X19X29) with 150lbs of live rock. My intent is to start out kind of slow by introducing some fish and then zoanthids until I can feel confident in what I am doing enough to maintain things appropriately. So to my question - The setup only came with a Orphek LED Blue Plus Bar 48" so I know I will need to get another light and I have been trying to figure out what is the best light for me to get now. I have been looking at everything from the Kessil's - the Orphek and everything in between. I know that eventually I would like to get a nicer light setup but it was suggested to me that for now, I would be fine with the Reef Bright Lumi Lite 72" strip. I am wondering what your thoughts are on the different lights that are out there and would appreciate suggestions. Thank you in advance for any help that is given.
