Replacing aging Trulumen pros

clamb · Mar 3, 2023

Hi everyone I'm new here.
I have a biocube 14 with Trulumen pro led strips that are going bad. I need to replace them , I want to retrofit in the existing hood and my budget is fairly tight. I have mostly soft corals with a couple LPS. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Not sure how tight your budget is, but here are three options that should fit:

Coral Life Aqua Light Mini: $80 (SWA)
Pop Bloom S16: $60 (amazon)
Zetlight 1201: $55 (Aqua cave)

Do you think I could retrofit into my existing hood?

I would check the measurements of a) where the light will be mounted; and b) the new light fixture. Other considerations should be how the existing light is mounted, how are the new fixtures designed, and your DIY ability. With a little ingenuity you can always squeeze a square peg into a round hole.
