Hello Everybody! I am setting up my first Reef tank and I am looking into lighting. My tank is 32" X 24" X 24".

Does anybody have any good recommendations?

I was thinking of these options, but not exactly sure which setup would be best:

Option 1: 2 X Red Sea ReefLED 50
Option 2: 2 X Red Sea ReefLED 90
Option 3: 1 X Red Sea ReefLED 90
Option 4: 1 X Red Sea ReefLED 160
Option 5: 2 X AI Prime 16
 

Spare time

I would skip all of those and go for either AI blades, noopsyche, or reefbrites. I am not a big fan of the spectrum on the red sea lights, and the blades are better than the primes in my opinion in all but spectrum.
