ISO Skimmer and possible new light
 

Hi I am looking for a small footprint skimmer or a hanging for roughly 150 gallons also looking for a light for my 65 gallon salt 36x18 x24 high .

Any ideas ? Looking for a more modern skimmer !!

Led or t5 ?

Now I am just looking for and led fixture !!

How much do you want to spend and what do you want to grow?

IME the Kessils were the only LED that were blended well enough to look good in a tank, but they can be tricky to tweak.

Now I have found out that the best LED is a Metal Halide, easier to use, better results, less money.

"Saving money by going with LED" in this hobby is a bit of a misnomer for many reasons.

I know you didn't ask that, however not knowing where you are at in this hobby I thought i would throw that out there.

$3-400 at the most I like the idea of leds cause of cost saving and low heat .i mostly have softies some zoas hammers monti-s etc

Oh OK.

Ya I got nothing to cover 36" well and be low power consumption.

Lots of people like those "Black Box" LEDs units. A pair of these would cover your tank, perhaps add a diffuse panels if the colour mixing is not up to your satisfaction.

You could probably get a pair for your budget if you look around, they are around $100 US a piece.

Now the only thing is these are 165w a piece, so that would be 330w for the pair. Of course you can which should reduce power consumption to some degree.

I was kinda looking at the the current pro leds and the were about $270

I think kessil ap700 would cover your whole tank , but the price is a bit high $1100 at J&L aquatic
