| Depends on the tank what you keep.
First white led 6500K could supply the energy to plant and coral 11000K is the strongest sunlight,could promote the growth for the coral,suitable for the saltwater tank now we talked about blue led
LED could use these few color together in one bar, but other no. |

| Make sure you choose a 3w LED if you go LED. 1w will not be strong enough and will kill your corals. 6500k is sunlight range, but will promote algae, dinoflagellates and cyano bacteria growth which are like the "weeds" or a coral tank. Farming coral frags should start with a 10k-12k range lighting system and grow up to a 20k system for color enhancement as the coral colonies mature. |
