LED lighting suggestion for 72 bow

[Pikemartin]

Suggestions on LED lighting for a take this size? Reef tank with no sps. Was thinking a 27" razor or 2 kessils.

 

[Pikemartin]

Anyone?

 

[tigerdragon]

What is the length and width of tank. I would go with ocean revive or reef radiance

 

[Pikemartin]

48x18x22. Standard 72g front Bow

Figure if I went with kessil I'd need the 360s which are 400 a pop. Not cheap but keeper than say 2 hydras or radions

 

[tigerdragon]

What is your budget and are you wanting dimmable or programable

 

[tigerdragon]

At least 3 kessils

 

[Pikemartin]

Ouch thought 2 kessils would be sufficient. 800 would be the absolute most I'd spend. Dim able yes. I do have an apex as well

 

[tigerdragon]

You could do 2 Ocean Revive t247's or 2 reef radiance dm165e

 

[Pikemartin]

Haven't research into those. Solid fixtures?

 

[tigerdragon]

Yes i am running the reef radiance on my main tank and the t247 on my frag tank

 

[Pikemartin]

Wow those ocean revives are nice budget wise

 

[Pikemartin]

Which one of the 2 do you suggest?

 

[tigerdragon]

The reef radiance dm165p is programmable the ocean revive it series is programmable

 

[Pikemartin]

Thanks for the help. Gonna be a tough decision considering the sleek simple design of a kessil

 

[tigerdragon]

If not looking for programable i would do either one

 

[Pikemartin]

Thanks man

 

[tigerdragon]

With the kessil if you want apex contol you have to get the module

 

[Pikemartin]

Ya I have an wxm for my vortechs. Thought about radions to match but 2 gen 3s would run about 1200

On your tank if you have a center brace you may need 4 to avoid too much shadowing
