Any suggestions for buying a 150 gal fish only tank and lighting suggestions☺️
 
Any basic led that you can control, perhaps the basic fluval marine spectrum? They look nice and are inexpensive strip lights!
 
Honestly, whatever cheap LEDs that you can control remotely and set a schedule (mainly just to give the fish a day/night scheme and whatever looks great for viewing).
Thank you for your help☺️
 
Is this a 6' tank? If so, I'd throw a trio of vivarspectra 165W leds on it. You can always turn down the intensity, they have built in timers, and if you decide later on to experiment with adding corals, you won't need to upgrade the lights.
 
For fish only , like other mentioned lower end LEDs would work best and the intensity won’t be a issue,

Thank you and yes this sounds great☺️Thank you
