Cheeeapppp FOWLR lighting for large tank.

Caragol · 11/22/2020, 08:16 PM

I've lost the bug for my reef, want to keep it fish only. It's a 240 8' by 2' by 2'. I want it cheap, maybe 50/50 blue white leds. Thinking maybe 4 generic 24" led lights from eBay. Anyone have any suggestions? I could also maybe do a couple of 4 foot shop lights if I could find t8/led actinic bulbs.

Really any fixture to fit the bulbs you want would work.
Cheap is form the orient, plenty of them listed on the web.
