Lighting assistance

[StonedCorals]

Very new to saltwater only a few days in, i received this tank over the weekend fully cycled etc. i bought some corals yesterday and they are in a 29 gallon tall tank and the light i currently have i believe is a kinda crap…. I need light recommendations for a 29 tall!! Please and thank you! Any other tips are very appreciated and welcomed !

Welcome to R2R, and congratulations on your new tank, it looks very nice already!

What are you budgetary restrictions?

Budget friendly: Smatfarm, Popbloom, Nicrew are there a few.
Higher end: Kessil, ReefBreeders, AI, Radion, Reefi....

Currently ReefBreeders is quite popular and a quality fixture.

I used a 100 watt nicrew on my 32 for years, when it crapped out I recently got a popbloom rl90. IMO you want something around 100 watts, lots of choices available.

Around 100watts because my tank is deep??

Thank you very much!! A handful of people have been saying popbloom but i would need two of them and it would be around 5-600$ would it be better to do just one kessil light at that point?

Just based on my own result of 100 watt on a 32 gallon 18" depth at 75%. It doesn't hurt to go to 150 watts if your concerned but you might need to dial it down a little.

Popbloom on Amazon are quite affordable. I think you could getting away with one Ir90 or 120 watts mounted lower.

Kessils are nice lights, but the thing I like about AI and ReefBreeders is you can add Edges easily.
