I just bought a deep blue 80 gallon frag tank. It’s 4 foot long and 16 inches deep. What’s the best lighting for this tank? Going to be sps/lps dominated.
 
Can mount them however. Nothing overly expensive. Was thinking about doing t5s but not sure.

T5s are amazing. It's gonna cost $5-600 for a decent setup.

Might want to look at ReefBreeders before deciding that route
 
I vote for a reef breeders photon v2+ 50. Hang it 24” over the water and it’ll grow whatever you need at a very attractive price
