Planning to be mainly lps with this tank, so shooting for those par levels. Was thinking a360x or xr15 g6. But am open to different lights or styles. I love the kessil spectrum but I hate their shadowing. I love the radion shadowing but their spectrum leaves some to be desired. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks and happy reefing!

For the price to performance ratio, you can't beat Noopsyche K7 Pro III. @Zach B is the exclusive North American distributor for them and can answer any questions if you have them.

I would go radion XR30 - if you want to save a bit of cash, perhaps look for a second hand G5?

Noopsyche K7s are also a very good economical option.

A Reefbreeders photon would be a nice light. I love mine, have it over a 3 foot water box and Acropora
Which photon do you have. Sorry I'm just starting my search for a light to cover a 3ft x 22 x 22 inch tank and would like to stay with a single fixture that can be attached to the tank.

Honestly for a 2 ft tank, if you want a lot of LPS and the colors to pop go with the G6 XR 15 Blue/Pro and then get the reefbrite XHO kit to add addition coverage.
