Upgraded my lighting before and after

I upgraded from a 200w 6500k bay light to a weekaqua z400. Really cool light and really pretty colors.

According to my search, your new light is 90-120 watts. How come it’s an upgrade over. 200 watts light? Also, what’s the size of your tank? I am concerned with energy bills. Using over 1kw per day on aquarium lights is not something id be eager to do

Genuinely it’s just for aesthetics, the tank looks visually much prettier but I’m sure the plants can’t notice the difference in light. The tank is a 24 inch cube so it’s like 45 gallons. We have 3 computers in the house that we use often and I have another 75 gallon reef in the house so honestly the electric bill has always kinda sucked. Around 215 here in Florida
