Good budget lights?

[blazedbeef]

Hi everyone! I’m looking to upgrade my lighting on my hexagon tank. I don’t really want anything super fancy. I have an AI prime on my other tank, and don’t wanna mess with making a lighting schedule. Just looking for something that has its own schedule and turns on and off automatically. If that doesn’t exist I’ll just buy another prime, but I wanna see if there’s any other good options out there!

Yeah I know. I was just seeing if there’s anything out there that’s cheaper and more plug and play

Personally I like my nicrew better than my AI Prime. I did not buy the controller for it, I manually set it how I like then I added a $10 wifi timer to control the on/off.

Which Nicrew do you have? Have been curious about them.

Nicrew hyper reef 150. Just replaced my black box with it. Corals are happier. It's bright

Switch to a metal halide! Cheaper than LED and better in my opinion. As far as automation, just get an outlet timer for $10. It’s seriously not that complicated…

I have the 100w on a 32 gallon tank.
