LED lights for 240 Gallon

[deejayjaym]

I just bought 240 gallon (8x2x2) tank for my future monster fishes. Now, I'm need of LED lights. What can you MFK recommend me? thanks for your help.....

I use 2 48" current satellite LED mounted ~12 inches above the tank. I think I would do 2 36" units if I were to do it again, as a lot of the light spills over the sides using the full length of the tank. If I were to place them directly on the glass tops it would look fine.

I assumed you hanged your lights. I'm thinking of just sitting it on top of the tank. 2 of 36" led lights should be enough for 8x2x2 tank? Thanxs

If you don't hang them I'd do two 48"

2x 36" finnex lights hanging above tank is plenty for 8x2x2' tank. i had it on 30" high tank and it was very bright. if you want it brighter, you have to rigged yourself some diy 3w leds with lenses.
