Welcome to the Reef. If your tank will be just fish I would pick some cheap LED. If you think corals are going to come down that line then I would look into lighting more, no reason to spend money to just upgrade again. Just buy something good the first time around.

I like the Current USA IC Pro lights for fish only, or softy tanks. the have a built in time, moonlight hours, you can customize the colors.

Welcome to R2R (:
I'd say for lighting you should look on the "selling (dry goods)" forum posts and snag up some affordable used models of LED fixtures! Also, you could just look into the Viparspectra LED fixtures on Amazon, I have used them before with great success and they are awesome options that look clean and even has a timer!

Hi all, very excited to start my first saltwater fish only tank. I have a 55 gal and have everything except a filter and light. I was thinking a HOB Aquaclear 110 for the filter and i would appreciate any info on inexpensive lights, preferably with a timer either included or as an add on.
