Hi, I have the fluval evo and I would like to upgrade the light without spending a ton of money so I was wondering if the fluval 4.0 nano would be a good choice for my tank. I only have zoas, gsp, xena, and a dunkin I don't plan on getting any other corals that require more.
So my question is is the 4.0 enough for what I have or is there a better budget friendly option?
I also looked at the

hygger Marine One Coral Reef Light​



Thank you!!!

I googled the nano and it is only 20 watts? Personally I would suggest the nicrew 50 watt. Its a good quality lower budget brand. Other lower cost lights with good value are Vivarspectra, Jebao, Popbloom, Smatfarm. Go with something 50-60 watts not less. There are many threads on the nicrew light and the others I mentioned if you use the forum search function. IMO stay away from fluval brand. Good luck
