Frag lighting solution

mortimersnerd · Jan 19, 2025

My frag tank is a 33 long: 48x12x13. I've got 2x Kessil A360x over it. I like them, but the light distribution has me thinking that a 36" LED strip would be a better fit. Any favorites out there? I'd prefer simple on/off with no apps or fancy stuff I don't want to pay for. Also thinking of running just 1 strip, so not sure if I'd be better off with something blue or mixed white/blue.

Orphek OR3 seems like what you need. Next popular choice maybe the AI Blade Grow.

Also quanta helix bar or meridian edge bar.

I use a Radion with double AI blades (grows) on my frag tank. Personally I really like the power and evenness of the grows.
But any of the bars will give you a better spread which is what is important.
I look at kessil's as more of an accent light more than a main light. Which is slightly unfair because the light quality of the area that they cover is great, but it the distribution is tight.
