Was wondering what type of light this is. I've attached photos for reference.

Looks like a 4x96 watt coralife aqualight power compact fixture. I'm fairly certain those used the 4 pin parallel "euro style" plug, not the square pattern japanese one.

Back in the day, you had half 10k bulbs and half actinic. Plug it into a simple appliance timer and you're growing corals.

Power Compact/PLL.
It’s basically a double T5 bulb.
Red Sea Max 130/250 used to use them back in the day.

They do sell LED versions of them now, but they aren’t in spectrum for growing coral.
