Led Lighting For Shrimp Tank


Blue Ram

Recommended Posts

I'm in the process of tearing down a 20 gal custom tank to replace the substrate. I also want to swap out the power compact light fixture for some LEDs. Tank is full of low light easy plants, crystal shrimp and loaches. If you have any recommendations on lighting, I'd love to hear from you.

Marineland double bright if you can find one used for cheap

Current USA satellite+

Never used the finnex yet but based on what the internet tells me the ray2 will need co2 or very careful management to keep algae at bay so the fugeray may be a better choice

I have a fugeray on a 30G bow. Pretty deep tank, and that light caused an algae boom. I almost went with the ray 2, which would have been brutal for my low light plants, and no CO2. I have a marineland double bright on a 55G corner (also tall) and it leaves a couple dark corners, though the shape and lid might be to blame. Never used the Current USA, but have heard great things... Check your PAR data, and what setup you want.
