Here is a quick comparison of the pros and cons of 4 reef lights. This isn’t meant to be an in-depth guide of each light, but rather a quick chance to take a look at all 4 side by side and compare some features.

1) Kessil A80 Tuna Blue. I enjoy the overall look of this light. I’ve had great coral growth and it is my favorite light
2) Nicrew 30W. Although it actually light up my freshwater planted (18x18) aquarium, it is designed for saltwater and in this video I saw why. Great brightness, controllability, and color in one budget friendly option. This is my choice for budget seeking hobbiests.
3) Aquaknight high par Led. I love the brightness and many people put this on tanks much bigger than 12x12. It is the brightest light but lacks easy controls. Buy it for great look and growth on any sized tank.
4) FluvalSea 3.0. This light is not great for this size tank. It has great control with the FluvalSmart app and would be recommended only on tanks under 3 gallons. But if you are spending this much already, just get the Kessil.
