Lighting help. 65 Gallon Marineland corner-Flo.

[djmicl]

What size lights should I get? 36 inches or 24 inches. Thinking of getting LEDs. The tank measures 36 inches? Would that be to much considering that the corner-Flo takes a large part of one corner?

I have the same tank & I have 2x 36" on the back over the overflow and LEDs in the front center, all on the canopy.

I think your answer varies according to the optics.

I have a used Chinese 120 watt led fixture for 80 bucks that would work for you.

 

[JohannesFTL]

Watchman. That's what I have over my 65.

Djmicl. Here's what it looks like on mine.

 

[djmicl]

Nice looks good. JohannesFTL. Are you able to keep SPS?
Watchman... Whats the model of the lights. What are the measurements.

 

[JohannesFTL]

Im not sure. Have little confidence in my chemistry so never tried. Sticks are a bit pricey to just jump in. Also lacking the flow for it right now with my wp25 is down.

 

[Watchman86]

It's 16x8.5x3 I believe. It's from exotic Sealife before they were labeling their lights.

What sps do you plan on keeping ? I would sugest t5 led combo would be able to keep just about anything

 

[djmicl]

I'm not planning to get any SPS that are too difficult. I'm planning on getting the Ledzeal.. Malibu s200 or Malibu s150. What do you guys think of these lights?

 

[djmicl]

Right now I have nothing setup. Trying to get everything together. Hopefully have the tank up by January.

I think you can do single 20 inch block custom Rapid LED packed to the brim with 80 degree optics.

 

[djmicl]

I just looked into the Rapid Led... Very nice lights. Kinda pricey.
