Trying to find the best light for a NUVO 20 peninsula

[Nigel35]

I hear that the AI primes are good for this kind of tank but not sure if that is the best option. I do like the idea of a longer light that spans the length of the tank but I'm not completely stuck to the idea. I would need a light that will be able to grow everything from softies to sps. Price is not an issue. Thoughts?

If price is no option I'd either have those or t5 hybrid

 

[Tuffyyyyy]

If price is truly not an issue then go with the XR30 Pro. Otherwise grab 2x AI Prime or the Kessil AP700/AP9X. Any of those will take care of that tank.

a unique solution could be to get LED strips from Aliexpress. You could get 3x 470nm and 1x white/blue combo and would be set. That’s the only thing I I can think of where you’d have wall to wall lighting with LEDs.

ok lets jump to the other end of the spectrum... lets say I want to keep a budget. What light would work best?

I have an XR30 over a 24" long tank and wish I had 2x XR15's...
