Hi Guys,

I want to light my 160x60x60 (672 l) tank (SPS/LPS) with a few lamps.
I was considering 2x Radion XR30 Blue + 1x XR15 Blue.
Low-emitted noise is one of my priorities to and I would feel really bad spending a fortune (especially as in Europe these lamps are 25% more expensive) on a set of lamps that I can clearly hear.

I'd appreciate every suggestion.

My kessil AP9x and H80 run silent, as does my Orphek bar. The Kessils produce sufficient PAR and exceptional shimmer, and the Orphek bar enhances coverage and reduces shadowing.

Kessil's are unbelievably quiet. I have one A360x right now and it is a great light. I'm a fan of the shimmer effect as well.

Well to guarantee quiet go fanless.
Phillips and ati come to mind.
There are others..

I know this is a older thread, but if you are looking for truly a quiet light, as a few have mentioned Philips CoralCare gen 2 fixtures are fanless and silent.
I've had mine since they first came out in the USA and can vouch that they are silent.
ATI Stratton is another fanless led fixture.
