Ecoray 60d

This is my first post on this forum so Ill say hello first :)
I am planing on getting rid of my 75gal freshwater oscar tank and setting up my first ever reef tank in a 20gal long aquarium.
I was wondering if any of you have the ecoray 60d LEDs? I plan on keeping a wide array of corals that have low and high lighting requirements and if any of you have a 20gal long with great coral growth id love to know what your lighting is. There are too many possibilities and i am getting a head ache haha.. I don't want to spend more than $200 but I have read some good things on the ecoray, I will save up if I have to.
Thank you in advanced!

They claim they are 1watt led, not enough to grow nothing other than LPS, no claims, anemones or LPS coral.
Oh and Welcome.

Hi and Welcome!!!
Yeah, the 1 watt LED's do not keep anything and everything. And for the money there are better cost effective fixtures out there.
Google reefbreeders photon LED's. This is just one example. There are more.
Just a side note: If you are not going to use the 75g Oscar tank, why not turn that into a SW reef tank??
A 20g long is a tough first SW tank. There is just not a lot of room for error. The greater water volume the more margin of error you have. 1 part of something bad in a 20g tank is more potent then 1 part of something bad in a 75g. Make sense?? This, of course, is just a suggestion.
