need advice on 48" LED light canopy

[scrapman]

Hi,
I'd like to replace my HO T5 with LED's
I'm lost when trying to understand what's on the market....
Can anybody recommend a good-simple-to-use unit?
My tank is 90 gal. Happy fish and happy simple corals..... Just needing a simple good lighting....
Thanks

Check Amazon for some decent cheap LED lighting systems. They have some pretty good deals in 160w programmable lighting. I would try to get something in full spectrum, meaning more than just whites and blues. Greens, reds and purples aren't necessary for the most part for the corals, but it makes it easier to look at for your human vision spectrum.

There are also good deals on eBay for the same unit or very close to it. I think this time of year they should be about $90 each.

Ebay has the best deals on cheap chinese LEDs.

Then again, saltwaterfish.com also has some more expensive American made units.
