New 60 Gallon - LED Lighting Thoughts?

[Tarunc]

Hello All.
So I am starting on my saltwater venture. My tank is in the cycling stage now and water is doing very well based on the advice I have gotten here....THANK YOU!.

I have a question, naturally....I am currently using the 2 fluorescent hoods that came with my tank and I know they will not be adequate going forward.. The plan is to start with a FOWLR tank and eventually introduce some live corals... I also think it would be efficient to switch to LED when the budget allows. I have been looking at the Current USA LED hood for my tank.

I know the TAOTronics are loved here...but I dont really have options for hanging them above my tank...so I need something I can put across the top as a hood replacement.

Anyone have thoughts on the CURRENT USA ORBIT MARINE LED AQUARIUM FIXTURE 48"-60" - WIRELESS RAMP TIMER PRO?

The model is sold for 225+ for the time being...
I await your responses and thank you in advance...

I would want something more powerful if you intend to keep stony corals and clams. Otherwise, the current fixture should work for you.

I used the tao over my 60g with bars that mount to the back of the stand. You can buy premade ones or make your own.
