Hi There!

I recently inherited the below TrueLumen Pro LED Light Strips. They each have a TrueLumen Inline dimmer. They all connect to a 3-Way DC Splitter which connects to a 24V DC 60 WATT Power Supply. My question is, What is the best way to control these lights? I want to avoid manually turning on/off these lights twice a day for the rest of my life. They are currently mounted about 6 inches above my 125 gallon salt water tank that is 24 inches deep. I am new to the hobby, so my tank only contains fish at the moment but hope to expand upon the population in the future with an anemone and/or corals. I have 1 blue tang, 1 six-line wrasse, 1 royal gramma, 1 black ocellaris clownfish, 1 orange ocellaris clownfish, 1 peppermint shrimp, 1 cleaner shrimp, and several snails in the tank together for a little over a year now. I also have 1 IceCap 3k Gyre flow pump in the mix.

Thank You For Your Advice!! :)

I had a bunch of these for while. There was/is a dimmer/timer that works with them. See if you can find one.

Those look OK. Im interested in trying to understand the best possible way to control led light strips. I saw a box labeled "analog dimming" but unfamilar with what that means or where to start
