Hello, Im sorry if this has been asked before but I recently had to upgrade my tank to a 60g cube (24x24x24) from my 40g breeder after it started leaking,(after having it 6mo) and im thinking of upgrading my lighting and questing if I really need to.
I currently put on my past tanks light that is a smart farm 95w from amazon. It works just fine honestly. But im questing if I should upgrade to something like a kessil a30x because I like the shimmer aspect it can have, but it's more than it is really more than I want to spend. I also am considering the AI prime 16HD light, Or possibly the radion xr15 G6 pro since my lsf is selling it at last years price.

I currently am stocking some lps, soft, corals (hammers, candy cain, Duncan, torch, mushrooms) and anemones.

Any help is appreciated id be curious if it is worth it to upgrade and why one may be a better choice than another.

Thank you!

If your current light works just fine, keep as is! Save up for the kessils you want :cool:
