Be careful. Today the term "best" is extremely subjective and mostly directed to personal preferences.
You should specify what would be the "best" that you are looking for.
Even though, everyone will still give their personal preference advice.

Prime’s are great lights, esp/specifically on a smaller tank like yours. I’m not sure if one has enough spread for a 30. If you don’t have the coverage you want I’d just add another prime.
