Recently I have purchase a 140G Oceanic.
Here is the dimension of the tank:
L 48.5 x W 24.5 x H 29

Contemplating which lights to buy or what would be appropiated for this tank. Just picking your brain to see if we have similiar thoughts.

Here are three things to consider, before your share your personal advice.
1) This will be an all mix reef, softies, LPS but a greater amout of SPS.
2) Do not want metal halides
3) I have a canopy.

I been looking at the PFO Solaris $2700 and the Aquactinics Constellation $840 which I had previously owned in the past on a 90 Gallon. The Aquactinics Constellation is a T7's great lights and my SPS did marvelous. Price is important to me, I think $2700 is too much. I am open for your opinion.

Thank you

When in doubt, empty the magazine.
 
I have T5's and SPS love them! I am looking at this tank also. Currently have a 55 gal., and want to keep my lights. The tank measurements are perfect for my current lights.
