Low tech tank light

Hi folks,

Regarding lighting - my tank dimensions are:

36 inches length
24 inches width and height

For a low-tech tank - would a Fluval 3.0 be okay? Starting with 1, and maybe in the future adding another?

In total, this would cost £400 or so if I get two. IS there something better (with the same customisation) for a similar price? The warranty isn't too and either.

Thank you
 
Looks like it'd be fine. An alternative also worth considering is this https://www.aquariumgardens.co.uk/twinstar-led-aquarium-light-900sa-3377-p.asp. You can add a dimmer for around a tenner or a S2pro programmable control unit for around £15, you will definitely need one or the other for a low-energy tank. The colour rendition is probably the best you can get at this price point. One of these will be enough.
 
I think the problem with the Twinstar is that it says glass can only be a maximum of 10mm. Which is a shame..
