Not sure bout under 150 but i like the ocean revive t247 $158 with shipping
I have this over a 25 gallon SPS dominant cube. I am very pleased with the light.

I liked it so much I moved my kessil A350 to the frag tank and left this on the DT

I have 4 of the Ocean Revive S026 and they are not lasting for the long haul. 1 Has a burnt out channel and another is losing par at a fast rate. I am trying to work with OR but its been several weeks since I let them know about the issue and nothing has been resolved yet.

2 are from early last year and 2 are from the beginning of this year. I noticed when I received the newer ones that the older ones weren't as bright. I didn't think too much of it at the time but it became more obvious with age. I've been in touch with OR for the last couple of months. They have me jumping through hoops swapping parts from the new ones to the old ones but nothing has worked. I am very frustrated with their response and have lost a considerable amount of corals in the process.

Try the used equipment thread and see if you can get the Ocean Revive T247's or the artics. There are steals if you buy multiple units together from reefers leaving the hobby.

I've used the Current USA Orbit Marine setup. You're not going to beat it as far as aesthetics and ease of use go, but I think it's a bit underpowered for deeper tanks and medium to high light corals. Still, it's a great value and a good light.

+1 current usa orbit marine
Just got mine from Amazon and I'm loving it! It was only $147 because it was %40 off I'm very impressed with its quality and strength I see know reason why it could not support some/ most high light corals I have mine dimmed down to 50white 60blue because they were too strong this light also comes with custom programs u can set your self by remote and weather patters(cloud cover, thunderstorms, ect)
