Bamzam Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Hi, With the strange footprint of the Mr Aqua 12, can anyone recommend lighting please? Will a Kessil A160 be enough? Or should I go with something wider like a Current USA Orbit? I searched through some of the old threads and most recommended going with buildmyled.com which isn't selling aquarium lights anymore.. Thanks! Link to comment

Halo_003 Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 If it were my tank and budget is no problem... I vote 3x Kessil A169s, Or Nanobox Quad. Personally I went with a DIY build, a 24" CNC reef ASIS heatsink with 3 Nanobox arrays. The easy way to go and the best IMO would be just get a NB Quad and be done. Link to comment
Mariaface Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Holy Carp has a badass Mr Aqua 12L running a Current Orbit Marine. Check it out! Link to comment
Bamzam Posted May 9, 2016 Author Share Posted May 9, 2016 Thanks for the suggestions everyone. I am still looking at the Current USA Orbit regular/pro, NB Duo, 2 Kessil A160's, and the Aquamaxx Nemo (haven't narrowed it down at all lol). I guess I need to figure out what type of coral I want to keep. I'm still trying to learn about coral, but I'm thinking mostly LPS and maybe a few SPS. Hopefully one of these LED's shows up in the classifieds and makes the decision easy on me lol Link to comment
