Orbit Marine LED light by Current USA
Hi, I've been slowly obtaining parts to setup my first tank. I'm about to order the Orbit Marine LED light and I'm assuming the 36" - 48" size would be the best for my 36" tank. Though they also sell a 24" - 36" size. If anyone owns these lights was curious to hear your opinion. Tank is 55 gal with 12" depth. Thanks!

I just bought (about 2 months ago) 2 of the 36-48 inch lights to go over my tank. I am happy thus far with the lights and they are loaded with features. That being said one of them will be enough for low and moderate light corals. If you want to keep high light corals you are going to have to double up like I did and keep the light lovers near the top. Definitely get the 36-48 for a 36 inch tank.
Overall I think they are neat and look great, not super powerful so keep that in mind when planning your coral purchases.

Thanks so much for your advice! I was planning on having corals but I will limit them to the low/moderate light ones
