Upgrading light on 2ft cube

[alexytman]

I've owned this 2ft cube tank for over a year now and am thinking of adding easy monti/Pocillopora frags from my main 125gal tank. Ive only had 2 Zetlight za-1201 wifi 20W LEDs which were sufficient for my softies and leuphillia. I've found this 2nd hand light called ZT6500C but I cant find anything about it online. I've only found information about the ZT6500/ZT6500II, is there a difference and is this enough for my 2ft tank?

I don't have these lights but a quick search online seems to imply that the "C" model has WIFI.

Im quite sure all Qmaven models have wifi option. The issue is im debating whether its worth it to buy ZT6500II which is double the price of the ZT6500C(2nd hand used only for 2months)

I have also considered Noopsyche K7 Pro II and supplimenting with existing 20W LED since its a cheap light

I have a Noopsyche K7 Pro II light over one of my tanks and I do recommend it. Although my tank was recently set up, I have seen impressive results from others and am personally pleased with the build quality and the lights themselves. The weak point seems to be the controller, but that doesn't affect the growth of the coral.

The Noopsyche is around the same price as the 2nd hand Zetlight Qmaven 6500, what do you think would be the better purchase?

Because I have not experience with the 6500 I'm not sure that I can make a fair comparison, but I can tell you that I am pleased with the Noopsyche K7. @Manose was super helpful to help me get my light levels dialed in on the K7 so let's see if he has any input.
