I'm trying to get a 5-6 ft. Light for my CA tank. I'm trying to figure out what I should do. I need ideas.....what have you guys done???
What are you trying to accomplish?
Plants? I’m assuming since you mentioned Central’s probably not.
So if you’re just trying to see the fish you can go cheap or even diy with some shop light fixtures.
There’s lots of more expensive fixtures with ramping to simulate sun up sun down with WiFi and tons of features/ color arrangements.
If you are looking better than shop light but still relatively cheap, you could go with led fixture like Beamswork or Nicrew both are pretty cheap and easy to find on Amazon, that’s what I’ve used for a few years now.
