Lighting for a 10 gallon JBJ AOI Cube.

[ReefInterest]

I've got the following: JBJ 10 gal. Nano Rimless AIO - Black

I'm looking to just have some soft corals, don't need a lot of growth.

I'm thinking of the following:

Fluval Nano LED: Amazon.com
Lomnie A120: Amazon.com
Smatfarm: Amazon.com
Kessil A80: Amazon.com

Thoughts? I'm leaning towards just getting the Kessil, but are the others viable?

I think they would all work but I think I gravitate towards the Smatfarm. A lot of people seem to resell those A80's due to them being underpowered

Agree with Sean. Although I’ve been looking at Lominies for when my supply of MH bulbs run out.

That was the one worry about the Kessil. 20W does seem low compared to the others.

Are there any other options (possibly more expensive) that would be good for 10g cube?

I run a smartfarm on my wife’s 32 anemone tank. It does great but the sunrise sunset are meh and I haven’t been able to key in the right spectrum to get that extra pop. Itll definitely work for softies though. I have no experience with the others except I too have heard the A80s are underpowered.

You may also want to take a look at the Noopsyche Mini or the ReefBreeders Reef Nano
