I plan to add a 11x 6" frag rack in my sump. With all the splash and potential salt creep down there I'm not looking to spend money on a high end fixture. I'm open to other options but for now I'm looking at prime 16 hd and kessil (probably used if kessil) 150-360.

I can choose to mount the frag rack as high as I need in that section so I'm not too worried about par, just looking for the best light to keep them colored up and happy.
 
Or would a 15"xho reefbrite blue strip work best considering it matches the width of my sump?
 
I use a prime 16 on a 6 gallon 12in cube side frag tank
 
What lighting do you run on your display? Do they seem to hold color well after being fragged?
Hydra 52 HD’s on my display. I prefer the 52 HD’s but the prime 16 grows and colors well enough.
