Are these good for lps and soft coral?

 

[Saltyreef]

Yes.
I kept soft corals and LPS with less :)

I know several people who use Current brand lights. For soft and LPS it will likely work but it depends on the dimensions of the tank.

It’s a 4 foot 90 Gal.

What if I grabbed two of the 36-48 inches? I also have an add-on light from Fluval- I would never use it alone, but I do have it for an add on.

Nice!!! Would one be fine, or should I buy two?

 

[Saltyreef]

2 would work even better.

I used to use an old beamsworks fixture that was nowhere near as powerful as the currents.

Okay. I was gonna spend 700$ on reefbreeder photons, but I’m 16 and want money to do stuff with friends and my three other animals ha

And kept lps/ soft coral?

2 black box leds would be even better around same cost

Look into 2 ocean revive t47 leds. They are fairly cheap and people have good success with them.

I would go for two which gives the flexibility for placement around the tank and more even distribution. Don't rush buying lights until you are ready to add coral. Fish and inverts do just fine without them and you should do research on the topic. The first lights I bought are now sitting in the corner and were a $300 mistake.
