I want to add an upgraded light to my 75 mixed reef, currently im running 3 cheap amazon lights and have been for the last few years but I want to upgrade them! What light would be the best for a reasonable price (under $225 ideally)? Would I be able to add the lights one at a time and just replace one of my current lights until I can get all new?
 
Remember that old saying about how you can't really know where you're going if you don't know where you're coming from? (Or something like that! :D)

So what specific lights do you currently have?

I would try to pick something that is similar for your corals' sake.

Why do you want to upgrade? (Try to make a list of specific reasons even if it's short.)
 
As the low budget option I would select a 200 watt nicrew. But to be honest, its unlikely to find new lights for that size tank within that budget. Maybe wait until the Christmas sales start.
