Hi all,

I've just upgraded tanks and I had a Red Sea LED 50 light on my old tank which I really liked. My new tank has some aqua one stock lights which seem OK to start with but I wouldn't mind swapping. My question is the Red Sea LED 50 is only for tanks that are max 50x50x50 where as my new tank is 52 front to back x68 wide x 77cm deep. My gut says my Red Sea 50 won't be strong enough but does anyone have any experience using the light on bigger tanks than the spec ?


The corals I have are
Mid level in the tank
Torch
Finger
Zoas
GSP

On the sand bed
Toadstool
Flavia
Acan
 
You don't have any SPS corals, so it may be enough for the new tank.
Good to know. Won't be getting any SPS corals. Want some more for the sanded and maybe one more on the rockwork but definitely won't be SPS
