Got a new 5' 100 gallon african cichlid tank going. Using a dual tube 48" t8 shop light temporarily and will be ordering a new led light this week.
My question is... Should I go with the 48"-60" satellite freshwater led plus? At 30 watts, 96 White/48 RGB leds... Putting out 2000 lumens at $125
Or do I go with the beamswork 4th gen double hi lumen 48".. 164x 10000K daylight, 16x 460nm Actinic leds... at .5 watts each led for a total of 90 watts... and a stated 8000 lumens. At about $90 shipped...
Pretty open to other suggestions, but from my research i've narrowed it down to this. Interested in any and all opinions!!
