Hi..

Hi all, I'm Jay from Dublin, Ireland. Fairly new to this hobby so looking to soak up some knowledge :)
1 question i have is will a single kessil 160we do my tank or would i need more? Tank is aqua nano 60 which is just under 28 gal
I mainly have softies but would like to get a monti etc in future & wondering if kessils will suffice.

Welcome jay to r2r and thanks for introducing yourself. Depended on the footprint of your tank, a kessil would work great :)

As far as the Kessil; like stated above, it should be fine but depends on the footprint.

Thanks.. When you say footprint what exactly do you mean ? I will most likely get 2 kessils to ensure good coverage on the tank

Welcome! No knowledge on kessil. But an AI prime would. And the white ones are 112$ at dr smith and fosters :)

I originally was considering that exact kessil tbh. But personally got so much conflicting info. I suggest asking in the new section :). Lots of helpful people everywhere here

Footprint refers to the dimensions of your tank. For example I have a 40 breeder, which is 36x18x16 :)

Click the link and it adjusts to $199. Anyone who brings it to their attention will probably catch a Prime HD for $112 though
