Light Reccomendations [New Tank 20G]

[dimik]

Hi,

I'm still cycling my new tank but looking for light recommendations for a future mixed reed tank. What's the most affordable options out there and how much lighting do I need? My tank is 10"x20"x24" tall 20 gallons

An AI Prime HD 16, or even the older one (14 I think?), would be a great light in my opinion.

Easy to program using a downloadable smart phone app.

They have brackets that mount to your tank also.

Thanks that's the one I was looking at! Wasn't sure if I needed more than one.

You could also consider a Noopsyche K7. It’s a 90 watt light with 2 separated light pucks, where the AI Prime is a single 55 watt, in case you’re interested in SPS & better coverage/deeper punch.

With the Noopsyche, you will want to get the controller+mount kit. It’s a little more money than a new AI Prime 16 HD.

I own both lights, 2 AI’s & 6 Noopsyche’s.

Thanks for the commendation. Does the K7 have an app too for setting a schedule?
