Like the title says. I have a Fluval Chi 5.5 gallon tank that I want to turn into a pico. I have Everything I need except lighting. What would be a good light on the cheap.

The mini coralife t5 bulbs die out super fast. I say get the skkye led. They sell it on drsfosterandsmith, both the 4 watt and 8 watt. It has separate cords so you can put whites and blues on timers. Best bang for the buck. No more than 100 i think.
 

When to mix up fish meal: When was the last time you tried a different brand of food for your reef?
