will this produce enough light for a 90 gallon corner saltwater tank?

I have a corner reef tank (92G). Purchase the 36" version of this if you have zooanthids and SPS coral. If you have LPS, then you will need to get a 36" and a 24" running simultaneously.

I would say no because I have it on my 55 gallon column tank and I still have my other light on there to make it brighter otherwise it's kinda dim

The lighting will most definitely provide enough light. You may want to look at the bigger models to fit a 90 gallon though. This one fits up to 20gal long aquariums

I use this for my salt water tank and it gives plenty of bright light. Might need to research more if you are going to do plants but for fish and many types of salt water corals it is great.

No, I think you need 2 I have a 90 gallon 48x18x24. The lights are only about 3 inches wide So you probably need 1 in the front and 1 in the back. My corals responded immediately to the lighting. I only have soft corals

I run 2 48" end to end on my 300 gallon fresh water tank---lighting is great!

I seriously doubt it, if that's the only light the plants receive. One of these things gives enough light to make a betta tank (about 1.5 gal, and broader than it is deep) fairly bright to show off colors, but I can't see one being enough light for 15 gal of planted tank. However, I have no idea what wattage of light it's equivalent to (in order to estimate 1-2 watts per gallon); this is only my personal impression from looking at my own small setup.

As the prior response indicated, this light would not be the best option for a planted tank that requires stronger lighting.

I have one fixture on a 75 gallon tank and it is more than enough, but my tank isn't as deep as a 90 gallon would be - the water depth is probably something to consider too. I have LPS, SPS and soft corals and they are all doing well (too well in some cases). If you are only going to have fish and/or soft corals then I am sure you have plenty of light. If you have a lot of SPS all over the tank you MIGHT consider a second, but only if you have species that need a large amount of light. If I had to chose, I would buy one, then see what it looks like.

I think it will light up a 55 gal tank nicely. We have a 125 gal tank, and 2 of them do the trick.The metal extensions allow it to expand to 36".

I have a 150 gallon tank and i have one of these lights that works fine. I will order another one to complete my lighting.

I would not recommend this light if you are looking for bright lighting. The light only focuses on the middle of the tank, leaving darker spots on the edge. My 10 gallon tank has this problem, where it is insufficient light.

I would say it would do a good job in a 45gal tall tank the light is very intense on my 29gal and i have a well planted aquarium. Medium to low level light. Plants will be sufficent probaly not a high light plant though

Hi Jennifer. I think 1 light should be good enough. I have a 150G 5x2x2 feet and I have 2 lights and it looks good. Make sure that you hang the light about 12" above the water level so it has good coverage and doesn't bleach the corals. I turned mines to 60% on both blue and white and some of my corals were bleaching badly. I then reduced it down to around 40% for both and the color return slowly and my frogspawn is loving it. Good luck.

Depends on tank size, mine is over a 20 gallon tall, and is successfully lighting duncans, hammer, and various favia and favites. Also look at the reef breeders nano par 38 lamps, they're not too much more $.

I believe it will. I use it on my salt water tank and it makes my corals glow.

This light is not bright enough for corals at all I tried it on my 90 gallon reef tank and had to get a different light

For small corals yes it will... But I would get brighter so u wouldn't have to uograde in the future
