In the planning phase for my new tank. It's gonna be a 30 gallon Waterbox mini clear. Was wondering what lights you guys would recommend. Want to keep it as cheap as possible but I don't know how cheap that will end up being lol. Looking for ones where I can control the spectrum because I prefer to have a more whiteish natural look to my tanks. Also plan to grow a wide variety of corals. Softies like Xenia, Kenya tree. LPS like torches, frogspawn. SPS I would go for plating monti and birdnest coral.
 
I have a 100w nicrew on my 32. I have a sinularia and mangrove tree under it (for now). I'm sure it can grow sps as well. Its a good cheap light. Its one option
 
I'm liking my Kessil A360x tuna blue for my Waterbox 35.2. Only thing is that down the road i know i will need to add lighting for a more blanket of light. Not the cheapest light though.
