30" x 15" lighting

[ullo04]

hello everybody, i'm about to build my first reef tank, its going to be lps and soft corals dominant. I was having some troubles choosing a light; I was thinking about getting two AI prime 16hd or should i use someting like Orphek bars? I apologize if I'm completely wrong on what I am saying but if you have any suggestion on what kind of light i should get I'll be happy to hear them :)

Either option will work, but I think you'll be happier with the AI primes from a user interface and controllability perspective. Orpheks are powerful and affordable, but the app control is hit-or-miss, and spectrum control is limited by the fixtures themselves.

How deep is the tank? You might also consider Kessil A80s or A160s (yes I'm a Kessil Fanboy)

and also how would you use the kessils in a 100 x 50 x 50 cm tank?
