Need help choosing LED fixture for 7 gallon nano

Recommended Posts

Hi, I have a 7 gallon (30l) nano reef which currently has the stock 'Dennerle Nano Marinus Reeflight 2:2 24 W'. Im hoping to house some really nice LPS as well as a selection of Ricordea mushrooms. However when I see the corals under LED lighting they look a lot better! My question Is which LED light would you suggest for this tank? The tank is 14" deep and 12" wide/ long.


I have found a UK site which seems to be selling good quality PAR bulbs, however I am unsure how powerful these would need to be? they have two available:


A 'PAR20 Quadspec bulb' which is 15w (http://www.marinereefled.co.uk/par20-quadspec-mini/)


A 'PAR38 Quadspec bulb' which is 36w (http://www.marinereefled.co.uk/par38-quadspec-v2/)


I would like to spend less on the 15w bulb if it is adequate enough and could even buy another one of the Blue/Purple bulbs to supplement the 15w bulb. Another question is; would the PAR38 bulb fry the ricordea mushrooms I currently have under the 24w florescent compact unit?


Any advice is welcome! Thanks in advance
