Light for 24g Aquatop Recife ECO 24?

[mrnewberry]

I am trying to figure out what light to put on a 24 gallon Aquatop Recife ECO 24? I plan on doing a mixed reef but will want to be able to keep some sps. I am also trying to keep the cost low maybe $150ish give or take.

Metal halide will probably work and you can probably get one cheap

I just pulled the trigger on a Nicrew 100 watt.

I think it was 159 something on Amazon and there was a check box for $10 off so that was nice.

Not sure on the fish. I’ll get something eventually, but I may want to go without a lid for a while so I may not put anything jumpy in there.
