New Tank Build - Need Help with Lighting

[Birddog]

Finally pulled the trigger on a new DSA Neo 65 (dimensions 36x20x21). I love the look of a mixed reef with a nice representation from SPS. Lights I'm looking at include the 6 bulb Giesemann Reflexx, 6 bulb ATI Sunpower, or possibly this Coralvue 6 bulb / LED combo.

Also considering adding a strip of Reefbrights as well. I'm not crazy about the ATI because it appears the only installation option is hanging, and my wife will kill me if that's what I do. Does anyone have experience with the Coralvue fixture or the Giesemann? Any thoughts?

I run a Giesemann fixture and it is really nice, but then again it is a spectra MH/T5. I have seen that the Giesemann T5 has some decent reviews, but the ATI still puts out way more PAR and is a better T5 light IMHO. I wouldn't buy the coralvue fixture for SPS personally.

Thank you for your insight!
