Lights

Looking for LEDs for my 75 reef . I keep seeing people post about the EBay ones.? Are they good? It just doesn't seem right to me. That they could be so much cheaper. Any info would help

I have some. No complaints at all. I see great color and growth with them.

I have purchased about 6 of those units over the last two years. They are held up well and if anything they are too bright. lol Just make sure you get one with dimming capability.

So for a 75 I would get 3 of those?

2 unless its more then 4ft. I have 3 on my 6ft 150

It's 4 ft. That's crazy how much money I would save

Yep, just need two on a 48" tank. the only drawback is how you will hang them. You can use a bent metal tube that attaches to the back of the stand and hang from that. Some people use plant hangers mounted on the wall behind the tank. Just have to be creative as they dont have any built in mounting for the tank.

I built a cheap canopy for mine an have them sitting on top. I don't know what type of set up have have.

It's gonna be in the wall and in my mechanical room . I've got beams to hang from and what not. Lol I'm a plumber ill rig something up!!

That'll work. You'll be happy with them
