With a FOWLR tank you can use almost any light source that you like since keeping corals isn't your primary concern.. as long as you like how it lights up the tank... i think it should be fine just watch out because too much light can help feed algae outbreaks

My experience with one has only been at a depth of about 18'' and was fairly bright not sure about 30" though.. Maybe T5s might work?

I use them on my 125, 30" might be pushing it; I have them on 100%.

for FOWLR light is to make the fish color pop better. I afraid a strong light may bring algae problem
