LED Reef Lighting

booth2010 · Mar 6, 2014

Anyone have anything good or bad about Fluval Sea Full Spectrum Marine & Reef LED Aquarium Light - LED Aquarium Fish Tank Lights - petco.com
Its would be for a 29gal mixed reef w/ sump, mainly zoas some other sps, a clam, a few anemones and like 6-8 fish. Im looking to spend under 200$ and not need to add extra cooling system to the lights.

never heard of it, I personally would not buy that fixture if I was going to keep SPS/clams

Do you know of anything that would be good for a 29 gallon tank? It's 30" long. Preferably under 200$

Rick of Reef Radiance is running a Forum Sale right now here on R2R that has his DM-155e fixture fro just $168.95 delivered. More light than what you need so needs to be ran at lower % but would provide excellent coverage and have the ability to upgrade to a larger system in the future.

+1 for the DM-155e. It would be great over your 29g.

I just looked at it and it sounds awesome, I might have to wait and get it at full price unfortunately but that looks like the best bet. How would I tell what % to run it at though?
