LED lighting in planted tank

[sumadis]

I am relatively new to this hobby, i was looking into upgrading my current light system to an LED system. Anyone have any suggestions? I have a 75g tank which is 18" in depth. I was looking at the Marineland aquatic plant LED system. Any help would be great.

How far you want to take it with the planted tank? Easy once a week ferts with low light plants or injected co2 with high light plants and daily maintenance?

Preferably once a week so that I can time it with my weekly water changes. I was hoping to get a deal on one on Black Friday.

Look into a current satellite plus. You could always double up or sister up with a finnex later when the bug bites you hard

The satellite plus is nice but was wanting something that has a build in timer so that I can set when my lights come on and off.

I use a woods digital timer, it's actually better because you can program multiple time settings for each day..the built in timers are usually pretty limited. You can get a ramp timer for the sat to simulate sunrise and sunset which is kinda cool..
