Stacy1 Posted August 26, 2017 Report Share Posted August 26, 2017 Ive got two newly set up 10gal shrimp tanks and am in need of a light for one of them. The only plants that will be in the tank are buce, anubias pinto, moss, and mini pelia but I want a light that brings out the colors of my shrimp. The other tank I have a usa satellite plus that I just had hanging around not being used. I'm looking at the finnex stingray but I've never had one and wondering what the preferred options amonst you guys are Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chappy6107 Posted August 26, 2017 Report Share Posted August 26, 2017 I use a stingray on my 20 long and love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aotf Posted August 28, 2017 Report Share Posted August 28, 2017 I have a finnex stingray clip-on and I find the light to be very cold, much too blue for my taste. I don't know if the normal stingray has the same spectral output. I also have the Planted+, which I quite like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stacy1 Posted August 29, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2017 Thanks for the replies guys. I think I've got it narrowed down to either a usa satellite plus or the micmol aqua air 20w that DET has on the trade block. I like the sleekness of the micmol but I have a satellite plus on one tank and I know what to expect with it. I definitely want a ramp timer to keep from spooking my shrimp. Whats funny is I have over 20 tanks running from 10gal up to 75gal with everything in between and thanks to beamswork no light I have will cost anymore than what iI'll end up paying for one lil 10gal shrimp tank light haha. Yup. They'll be spoiled for sure Shrimporama 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stacy1 Posted August 31, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2017 I went with the micmol. Should have it tomorrow and am looking forward to trying it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
