Hi all, well the plan is a new tank. Going to be heavy Zoas and Palys, and fill with a few LPS, Chalice and a couple of easy SPS. Any suggestions on LED system for a 45G (48X15X15). Looking for more color than growth. Any suggestions or information would help. Thank you.

2 AI Vega Color, 2 Ecotech Radions, Mitras. Just make sure that your LED's cover the entire spectrum.

If you like DIY, I think DIY LED's are a viable option. The customization is really the advantage and you can save some money too.

Im looking at the Kessils for an upcoming 90G 48 x 18 x 24. I think the A350W would be better option, but I was looking at 2 of them for the 48 inch long tank. I saw one in person and I was very impressed.....
