    Hey Everyone! I'm a newbie to these forums and somewhat to the saltwater community. I'm trying to learn as much as i can before I get my tank running. I do have some questions hopefully some of you can add your feedback..

    Some Info: I have a 54 Gallon Corner Tank.

    I've been doing some research and i would like your feedback if you know about these lights...

    MarineLand LED - https://www.petsolutions.com/Marineland-LED-Aquarium-Lights+I47432990.aspx

    Panorama LED - https://www.petsolutions.com/Panorama-LED-Retrofit-Module+I45808210.aspx

    Stunner LED - https://www.petsolutions.com/Stunner-LED-Lighting-Strips+I45808013.aspx

    Some have different types of bulbs and i'm not familiar with the one i would need for a mostly fish only tank. maybe a anemone and live rock. Which would you choose?

    Thanks!

    None of those would support an anenome. I believe the stunner strip is the only one capable of growing any coral. The others are good for FO systems. My LFS has the Marineland one and it is fairly nice. Not as bright as I would like, but I do like the coloring.

    If your going fish only these will be fine. Anenomes require quite a bit of light and would need more light.

    I read some reviews that stated they have it lighting some coral/reef. My tank is a 55 gallon corner tank. It's not long where i would need a couple.
