Hi! I was wondering if any of you could recommend a good light for my low tech setup. Preferably one that doesnt hang from the ceiling, and looks very nice. The tank is a Ultum Nature Systems All in one 45A (17.71 x 11.02 x 11.02). Thanks!

I really like hygger lights, they are priced very well, even their highest quality ones aren't over 100$. But they're great quality for the prices. They get a bit warm after they've been on for a while, but it hasn't been any problem for me. You can choose the spectrum, the brightness, use colors. some of them even have a sunrise and sunset mode. I personally love these budget lights
