Hi everyone. I'm setting up a new 60gal cube and looking for opinions for Lighting it with LED's. I plan on keeping mostly soft and LPS corals and a few easier to keep SPS (birdsnest, stylo. Monti's) at the top of the reef. I'm looking for something programable and dimmable that I can control without hooking up to a computer. I love the Radions except I think it may be overkill for my needs. I think I can cover my needs without paying so much. Looking at possibly AI Hydra, reef breeders, Kesil, max spect Razor, but open to others options. I've been out of the hobby for a while and am just getting back in so the LED world is completely new to me. What would you suggest, why, and how would you set it up? Thanks for your input, it's a hard choice. Lol!
 
Got the hydra 52's over my 60. Perfect for sps, maybe a little much for just lps, but everyone knows you never just stick to softies, the stick bug will bite, and you'll be ready.
 
I've got a single Tao knockoff from eBay that is dimmable and I just set each (blue/whites) on a timer. About $100. I've got mostly Zoas, LPS with a couple monti caps. Everything seems happy a year later.
