Need help on choosing LED lighting for my GEX Glassterior Cube 200H (20cmx20cmx35cm)~

[rakurime]

Hi all,

I've recently bought a new tank, GEX Glassterior Cube 200H with the given dimension (20cm x 20cm x 35cm) which is quite a tall nano tank.

Quite limited choices left because most of the gd ones i've seen here are at least 30cm aka 1ft. Those under 30cm clip on LED lights are not convincing enough, any recommendations??

I'm referencing my coming up tank to be something like this,

IF you want to take some risk, off the beaten path of planted lights.. i recommend this

with

adjustable, replaceable and focused lighting.

looks like i gotta make a trip to c328 after work later....

i have seen some 20-25cm LED lights there before, but didnt notice the brand n specs...

Wonder if its good enough..

Sketch out the scaping plans/ideas during work time

Aquazonic, beamworks or green element? They have those clip ons which is one ft or under. High output would be beamworks and green element.

so sad.. no one wants to try my desk lamp led. hahaha.

the sketch looks interesting.

i see that the wood is on the left and a rock is on the right. the texture and color will contrast quite far bit, so the scape might turn out to be too contrasting and not very "smooth". But i may be wrong.. and i hope to be wrong.. because i want to see something different.

Well, maybe some quality flexible LED strips will be helpful. If I can I will recommend this http://www.lightingever.com/white-35...proof-681.html
I am using it now, not expensive, but not very bright but it's flexible, I think you will find it useful.
PS, this is my first post here, correct me if I am wrong,

Thanks for the above recommendations for LED Lights

i'm currently looking at this Dymax - LED Zon Light NX5 - (IQ5)
Saw it at c328 last night @ $29 and polyart selling at $33

The Dymax ZON LED Light easily clips on to most aquarium tanks. It is comprised of 43 LED bulbs in a combination of blue and white light. An inbuilt microprocessor allows you to seperately control the intensity of the blue and white lights. Suitable for both freshwater and marine aquaria.



What do you guys think?

I have the similar tank setup in office, the dymax nx5 is too weak my setup.
