Getting a innovative marine 75 will one ap9x led kessil light be enough
 
it depends what your intended corals are. a single AP9x will provide plenty of power for a mixed reef, with the ability to have some SPS top and center. If you want wall-to-wall SPS, you'll probably have to supplement.
 
Ok thanks for the info it’s much appreciated new to the hobby I have a biocube 32 but it’s not big enough for a mini predator tank which is what got me into the hobby to begin with

What would you recommend for a IM int 100
 
AP9x will also work there - the optics and reflectors are optimized for a 24x48 inch rectangular spread, and it looks like that tank is almost exactly that size. I have this fixture on my display and supplement with an orphek OR3 LED bar to decrease shadowing and increase PAR: https://amzn.to/4h1r2my
