55 Gallon LED lightning (1 Viewer)

[mraleg]

Hello, I moved my 36 gallon reef into 55 gallon tank. Now, I am debating if I should go with T5 HO or LED, while running it on my old lightning.
One of the options I am considering is Kessil 150W. Does anyone have experience with those? Will two of those be enough to run my green carpet anemone and reef without hard coral? I am thinking to add more LED in about other half a year.


Any other suggestions on LED lightning for 55 gallon for reasonable price?

Thank you

Two kessils the 10k model will be more than enough for a standard 4 ft 55 gallon to support a carpet anemone as well as sps in the tank.

I think 15K will be better? Another option I am thinking to leave my 36 inch 4 lamp AquaticLife (until I sell it) and add one Kessil LED for now.

thats what im going to be using on my 120 4x2x2 probably the 12k the 15k is really blue, how are u going to add the kessil with the fixture you wont have any room? at least for a standar 55

It would work with my 36'' fixture. I tried Kessils on my tank and liked it, however decided to wait until new Kessil come out and get LED in summer. For now I got T5 fixture=> happy so far.
