pico reef lighting

[dan987]

I want to put a couple hardy corals in my 2.5g pico. Anyone know a light that won't cost me an arm and a leg. I won't require the normal intensity. It's only a few inches deep. Thanks.

Bump!

15W (100W equivalent) LED PAR 38 floodlight
1200 lumens at 5000k

It's waterproof, and my plants get away with a lot less. (I also keep carnivorous plants). Probably gonna add a couple blue accent LEDs.

What do you think?

Par 30 on gooseneck. You need a bulb designed for a reef though.

Bump. Still looking for some feedback. Is this useless? Is there an option for reef lighting that won't cost $100+?
